Default Re: Museums

Over Easter I visited the Gordon Russell museum at Broadway in Worcestershire. In addition to the outstanding examples of stunning furniture there was a very good display of radios and TVs on the first floor. During the depression of the late 20's to early 30's when demand for furniture was reduced, Gordon and his team decided to make cabinets for Murphy Radio.

Broadway is a fantastic place to visit, nestled as it is in a valley within the North Cotswolds, all in all a great day out.
