Dorothy Dorothy I Kidd Senior Curator - Social and Domestic History and Scottish Life Archive Department of Scotland and Europe National Museums of Scotland Chambers Street Edinburgh EH1 1JF tel: 0131 247 4076 fax: 0131 247 4070 email: [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Social History Curators Group email list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Gallagher, Paul Sent: 06 March 2006 17:05 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [SHCG-LIST] unusual item requiring identification Can anyone help identify this tool? It was presented to me during our weekly object surgery at the Museum of Liverpool Life. The tool is spring loaded, so it may be used as part of some extraction process but beyond that we have no idea. Any help gratefully received. <<S2010016.JPG>> <<S2010014.JPG>> <<S2010015.JPG>> Paul Gallagher Curator of Contemporary Collecting National Museums Liverpool Tel: 0151 478 4573 Fax: 0151 478 4970 Visit 100% Cotton at Merseyside Maritime Museum until 4th June 2006. www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk <http://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/> National Museums Liverpool Legal Disclaimer: This email and any files transmitted with it may be confidential and privileged.
