Dear Listers

Thankyou for your suggestions, but I think I may have been misunderstood. I
realise there are museums devoted to specific individuals; and also museums
built by individuals to house their art collections etc., but these are not
autobiographical museums as such. The Grainger Museum was conceived and
designed by the composer Percy Grainger quite early on in his lifetime (I
think he also assisted with the building) for the purpose of housing his
manuscripts, inventions, photographs, clothing etc. He even intended his
skeleton to end up there, but it didn't.

Anyway, its not important, I'm just curious...
Thanks again,

Bryony Dawkes
