an insight into museums and collections

I join in Brian's lament. It may very well be the compulsive acquisitiveness of private collectors that ultimately preserve our martial heritage.

There are woefully few museums I would ever consider gifting my personal collection to.

Even those institutions are really only attractive because of the individuals currently associated with them. People pass through and on, unfortunately.
