Exhibitions of  Material from the Oliver Collection at the Egham Museum

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).
