Spent most of today visiting an old colleague from my days at the Pen Museum.Its a fair old treck on public transport but it’s his birthday.
He showed me a book that has been put together by his friends at The Iron Collectors Society to show the work of one collector who drew special and very detailed meeting cards, posters .. all sorts! This one caught my eye.
He himself is a collector of irons and all sorts!..
A while ago I photographed 200 of his irons and cataloged them as they were being donated to The Black Country Museum.He now wants me to the same with rest of his collection!!.. It was a mammoth task and I need to think about it.
