Exhibitions
Material from the Oliver Collection held in the
University of London Depository Library was originally exhibited from time to
time in the Bedford Library of Royal Holloway, University of London , but is now instead being
exhibited (from June 2007) in a display cabinet located in the Egham
Museum. The exhibitions mounted at
Royal Holloway (see list of items that were displayed
there) were based on themes which illustrated the wide range of items held in
the Collection. The items now being selected for exhibition and mounted on a
regular basis by Joan Wintour in the Egham Museum are restricted to the local
history of the Egham area (e.g. Egham, Englefield Green, Virginia Water,
and Thorpe). A list of all the
exhibitions (together with a description of the items which were displayed in
them) that have so far been mounted at Egham Museum is provided below:
