This collection is composed of items that are either reproductions or duplicates easily replaced, or sufficiently durable (like a railroad spike) that significant damage is unlikely. Because these items are Museum property, we track them in our system just like other artifacts. If you need to have a mark physically on the artifact, a simple letter prefix to the registration number, like E for Education, or D for Demonstration, should suffice. We mark solid objects with an archival ink or painted number over a contrasting acrylic paint stripe sealed with clear fingernail polish. For textile artifacts we use archival ink on a strip of cotton tape attached to the item with a couple of basting stitches (this is lap work that some of our older female volunteers really enjoy doing).

We have everything from uniforms to mess kits to patches that need to be marked. I don't want to spend much time on marking but at the same time can't really come up with good ways that are quick and different from the ways we mark our Permanent Collection items.
