Object Of The Month - August 2008
August 29, 2008 object of the month, archaeologyEvery month, LAARC volunteers choose 3 objects from the collections to enter our object of the month competition. This time round, we’re running a special “Lucky Loser!” month, where three previous 2nd place objects get a second chance to win gold and enter December’s Object of The Year Competition.
The first object this month was originally nominated in January and is a leather purse from Trig Lane (TL74)
The second was first selected in May and is the Hebrew inscripted Delftware plate from Mitre Street (MIR84)
The third item is up for the second month in a row and is the biscuitware figurine from Hibernia Wharf (HIB79)
