Do they buy things via E-Bay?

[Ponytail]

Suppose depends what it is, may have already got it in collection.

Just checked... They appear to have a copy... Mentioned in sources for History of Richmond, at Local Studies Library.

Would have got it myself, but don't have the proper place to store it. Plus, it looks like it needs some restoration work needed to stop it getting worse.

Yes they do. I once saw a photo album on Ebay which they bought after I brought it to their attention.

Always interested in Handsworth History.

I am aware that following negotiations with the vendor, that this item, along with some other related material has returned to Sheffield. Although the new owner wishes to remain anonymous, I can tell you that these materials are now being held very close to the districts that they cover. I have personally seen the same.The material is being stored in an appropriate manner, whilst thought is being given as to whether any restoration should be undertaken, or as to whether it is best preserved in its present condition.

Glad to hear that. 😀
