The Museum is calling out for donations of furnishings and objects to set dress the recreation of The Elephant & Castle. Today, we invited selected press members for a behind the scenes visit to help with our appeal.
Look out for us on BBC Midlands Today (6.30pm, Tues 26 Apr), BBC WM (The morning drive time show) and the Express & Star in print and online.
What are we searching for? The Collections Team are interested in collecting bar items from the 1960s, specifically: wooden tables and dark mahogany spindle back chairs, beer, wines and spirits bottles and promotional glasses. To help set dress the walls and tables, they are also looking for promotional materials such as wall plaques, mirrors, coasters and in particular, items that were marketed to women such as Babycham, Cherry B and Golden Godwin.
