Dear fellow MUSEUM-L members,
Is anyone out there familiar with an institution that might be
interested in a large (upper 5 figures) collection of advertising
pencils? The owner's nephew has asked me to help find a possible home
that wouldn't break up the collection. I am familiar with the pencil
museum in Kiswick, UK, but we're hoping to locate a domestic
institution.
The pencils come from all over the US, advertising all sorts of
businesses, and date from as far back as the early 20th century.
Any ideas?
Kenneth A MacLennan
Curator, Museum on Main
