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. ------------------------------- Hello All, Just wondered if anyone out there knew anything about dating wallpaper? I had a bag full of fragments of paper brought in the other day - photos attached. They have been attached to a door in layers which in turn were covered with tongue and groove boards. The house they are coming out of is very old, but I'm afraid I don't know where to start! I have looked at the resources on FirstBase which were helpful for the later pieces, but not so much for the ones I think are older. None of the pieces have any useful stamps to indicate the maker unfortunately. Any help or pointers gratefully received. Thank you alexia Alexia Clark Documentation & Collections Officer Stroud District (Cowle) Museum Service www.museuminthepark.org.uk<http://www.museuminthepark.org.uk/> www.twitter.com/museuminthepark<http://www.twitter.com/museuminthepark> www.facebook.com/TheMuseuminthePark<http://www.facebook.com/TheMuseuminthePark> Tel: 01453 763394 The Museum in the Park, Stratford Park, Stroud, GL5 4AF A Stroud District Council Service Enabling people to access and share the collections and heritage of the Stroud District for inspiration, learning and enjoyment.
