Tabacology in Vlaardingen

30 April 2023

Today is on the program a visit to the museum of Jan Anderson in Vlaardingen. The reason is the recent inventory of the collection of tobacco curiosities or tabacology there. We couldn't contain our curiosity to see how this subset - Anderson owns over a hundred collections on different themes! - was worked out. We were hospitably received by the collector himself. Nine photo volumes show the objects including a brief description, volume 10 and 11 are the summary. Students of the Reinwardt Academy and local volunteers helped with this task. Some objects are displayed in the museum, we have seen another part in the reserves. In short, an exciting day for us!
