A Tale of Toys - evening talk

North Hertfordshire Museum, Brand Street, Hitchin, SG5 IJE
7.30pm

The Hertfordshire museum service has been collecting objects like toys for over a hundred years, donated by people who have outgrown them. Recently their Curator, Matt Platt has been thinking about the tale of the toy, when did they first emerge? What sorts of things did people play with in the far distant past? Are toys from back then similar to today?

Find out what toys have been spending their retirement years in their display cases in this evening talk.
