Chris From: Social History Curators Group email list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Smith, Rachel Sent: 22 January 2015 13:17 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Asbestos in cookers This is an email sent via the SHCG List. If you reply to this message, your message will be sent to all the people on the list, not just the author of this message. ------------------------------- Dear All We have a collection of gas cookers, some of which contain asbestos. We are currently trying to find out what our options are in terms of removing or sealing in the asbestos. I'd be interested to find out what other people have done, as we can't be the only museum with this problem. Any tips or recommendations gratefully received.
