Looking back through the year the museum window displays have
showcased some very interesting themes & events which, from comments
received, have been much appreciated. Just as a reminder: - The year
started with the ' Ceasefire Football Match ' which took place on
Christmas Day in 1914.
- This was followed by ' A Spoonful of History ' which
looked back at some of the pills, potions & practices prescribed in times
past.
- A celebration of Lostwithiel's much loved 'Glyn Cinema ' also
highlighted significant events of the period.
- 'Anyone for Tennis'
depicted the history of tennis, a timely theme for the Queens &
Wimbledon season.
- Not surprisingly the 'Poldark's Cornwall' display has a
universal appeal that has attracted masses of attention.
Like the rest of Cornwall, Lostwithiel Museum
has also benefited from the so-called 'Poldark Effect.' Thanks
to Deborah Clough who has masterminded the window displays; her
inspired ideas & creative skills are very much admired &appreciated.
There's
more to look forward to with further displays before the
end of the year.
