John Hambleton's Curio Quiz

Our May 2023 meeting featured John Hambleton's Curio Quiz. Members were invited to examine various tools and implements before their purpose was explained. We recorded part of John's presentation. Other exhibits included a hanger for judge's wigs, a cup for collecting blackberries, and a tool for cutting out communion wafers.

The quiz proved very popular and despite their obscurity, our members identified 19 out of the 25 items displayed.  John has agreed to return to Furness Vale on 7th May next year so if you missed this event there will be a another opportunity to view another selection of curios.
