The stories behind the objects

These stories reflect a selection of the objects appearing in the exhibition Captivating and Curious, held to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the National Museum of Australia Act 1980. Objects were chosen for the exhibition both for their intrinsic historical interest, and because they are representative of the breadth and depth of the National Historical collection.
