Alec Cobbe – Museum Tour
Alec Cobbe will give a tour of the rare Cobbe Museum or Cabinet of Curiosities. Begun in the 1730s, it was known in the 18th century as the βArkβ as was the Ashmolean Tradescant collection. It contains objects from all of the continents of the world excepting Antarctica, and some Giant Irish deer fossil antlers perhaps between 10,000 and 50,000 years old.
