I've excavated 12 years worth of artifacts for the BC Museum of Anthropology and not one of them is on display... they're all in locked drawers and dusty reports.
I know, and I don't blame the museums (they can't tunnel into some extra dimension to display their archives), but it really drives home the point that in a given lifetime we see only a fraction of the art, history, literature, and specimens that have been painstakingly collected! I feel lucky (as I suspect you may) to have had the chance to get into the archives of some museums... it really is an amazing experience when you're not dying from dust-poisoning. :tongue:
