Hi Tim,

could you please tell us what you are researching and what you are  
looking for specifically?
It's a matter of fact that in most museums 90-95% of the objects are  
in storage and asking a collections person which one they love best is  
like asking a mother which of her children she loves best. Of course  
there are many objects that have a great stories or are interesting,  
but it would fill pages if I just grab the first ones that come to mind.

Best wishes
Angela
