This is of interest to us as well as we are frequently offered little antique items to sell. Suzanne Buchanan Executive Director Hingham Historical Society P.O. Box 434 / 34 Main Street Hingham, MA 02043 781-749-7721 www.hinghamhistorical.org From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Cherie Cook Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2015 3:40 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Sale of Antiques and Vintage Items in Museum Shop We have a member who is looking for examples of a policy (museum store, collections policy, etc.) that addresses the sale of antiques and vintage items in the museum store. Certainly he's aware of ethical/legal issues surrounding the sale of collection and deaccessioned items. This is a question about policies regarding selling antiques and vintage items in general. In addition to policy examples, he's also interested in any articles written on the subject. Thanks!
