The following artifacts were given to the Wisconsin Historical Society by a
Madison estate. The Historical Society's museum has already selected arti
facts for the museum collection, but we wanted to give local historical soc
ieties around the state an opportunity to add to their collections as well.
These will be available on a first-come-first-serve basis from Jonathan N
elson, Collection Development Archivist, Wisconsin Historical Society, jona
thanr.nelson@wisconsinhistory.org<mailto:<mailto:jonathanr.nelson@wisconsinhistory.
org>, 608-264-6447. We will work with you to hold the selected items for a
reasonable period of time, but hope that you will make arrangements to pic
k them up by April 1, 2009. Please let me know if you have any questions.
