The working life of Museum of London

What do Philippe Starck’s iconic lemon squeezer, a tracksuit top that belonged to a former Tottenham Hotspurs manager and a Christmas card sent (and painted) by Winston Churchill have in common? The answer is that they can all be found on the newly designed and expanded Exploring 20th Century London website www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk.

These are just three of the 9000 objects (including over 2500 from MoL) that are available for the public to view and enjoy and that cover almost every conceivable part of London in the 1900s. The objects have been made available by the Museum of London and 13 other London institutions.

The site has recently had a makeover so that images are bigger and it is a lot easier to browse around.

Take a look and see what you can find!
