Leeds Industrial Museum store clean
28 Jul 2025
Experts have been hard at work carrying out a detailed inventory of Leeds Industrial Museum's storage area this week, which contains hundreds of objects collected, donated and stored over several generations. Among the vast selection is a beautiful catalogue of corporate Christmas cards and calendars printed in the 1950s, vibrant steel signs advertising vintage businesses alongside a series of metal sheets carrying the adorable designs for Leeds-made toffee tins. Also found among the shelves is a fascinating collection exploring the history of Kirkstall Forge including a photograph of the Kirkstall Forge Home Guard in full uniform. Pictures is assistant curator Amy Jenkinson with part sof the collection.
