What's strange is that as a city we have a fine collection - some of which used to be housed in the Maritime Museum. My only hope is that there's some plan is in place to display them at the Museum of Liverpool Life, when it opens to the public?

Hi Daz.
There are about half a dozen objects on display in the Walker Art gallery, in the Craft & Design gallery on the ground floor. There will be more on display in the Museum of Liverpool (which opens today).
