New press moulds on the web

Last two weeks we cleaned sixty brass pipe mould from the former Royal Goedewaagen Pipe Works. Oxidation, particularly on the iron closing pins and some brass oxide on the remains of pipe clay was removed. Now the moulds have their original shiny appearance, they moved to the photo studio for being recorded extensively. Want to see them? The pipe moulds are now included in the online database at www.pipemuseum.nl, together with the other hundred that were already online.

Twenty thousand objects online

Earlier this month we informed the press that our online database has reached a new summit. Our 20.000th object has been included in the database. This means that we have realized 2/3 of our gigantic digitizing project. We look forward to the next part. Have a look for yourself at www.pipemuseum.nl for the complete virtual collection.
