Dear all,
These items were offered to Brighton
Museum & Art Gallery but sadly fall outside our collecting policy. The
donor, Mrs Joy Wilson, who is based in Aldwick near Bognor Regis, is keen to
find a home in an Accredited museum collection for them. She would like for
them to be collected from her within the next 6-8 weeks as she is looking to

Please do get in touch with Mrs Wilson
directly ([log in to unmask]) if your

Helen.
Keeper of World Art
