The People's Case
HBM
In principal, the idea of a People's Case has been approved by museum staff, this will be a display case where people can apply to show their own collections or items of interest.
In Whitstable in the early nineties the museum ran a People's Show on the same basis, it was one of the most popular shows the service ever ran.
There were collections of fossils and the kind of things one might expect in a museum, but there was also the unexpected: a collection of Homepride flour graders, a collection of veteran microphones, Star Wars figurines, tea towels from around the world, egg cups, a vast collection of cigarette packets.
So we are appealing to all you collectors out there, members and non-members alike to come forward and share your passion.
