It could actually be something that we'd be interested in potentially, we do have a small collection of police related items. Drop me an email and we can keep in touch if you like?

I'm actually looking for a new home for them, once I've figured out what they are, as they don't fit with our collections development policy (we only cover Yorkshire and the Humber). I'm contacting the Durham Museum, but I don't suppose this is the type of thing Beamish would collect? Many thanks for your help Leah ________________________________ From: Social History Curators Group email list <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> on behalf of Emma Sayer <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Sent: 23 July 2019 14:55 To: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Subject: Re: Mystery objects 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. ------------------------------- Hello Can anyone help with a couple of mystery objects? These wooden paddles have 'Durham City Police' written on them, along with quite a bit of black ink around the edges, which makes me think they might be connected to taking fingerprints. They are 355 mm long, 64 mm wide and 5 mm deep. Any ideas greatly appreciated.
