The Australian War Memorial in Canberra own one of the Nottingham Lace Panels. It is not on public display at the moment, but their database reference to it contains a good deal of interesting information. http://www.awm.gov.au/collection/RELAWM32146/
My favourite picture of a lacemaker at work is also held by the AWM in Canberra: http://www.awm.gov.au/collection/ART02909/. They hold a number of lace related items, including a "French style lace pillow" http://www.awm.gov.au/collection/REL35910/ ...Noelene noel...@lafferty.com.au Lace guild bulletins and personal letters have come to me from time-to-time, telling of additional locations, as the lace community tries to recapture history. One letter from Devon Thein to the New England Lace Group suggested there is a copy in the U.S. - in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, donated in 2007. She received this information from Brian Lemin in Australia. However, the http address provided failed for me today. There is at least one member of the New England Lace Group who could confirm this location, if she would come out of lurking. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
