How amazing that they have survived so well-preserved all these years, and how wonderful that you have been an integral part of bringing them back out to the light of day. I love that you have discovered these other collections around the world as well. I think they must be tremendously helpful to researchers seeking to learn more about heritage varieties. And, of course, they are absolutely beautiful. <br /><br />Thanks so much for sharing this! xo GigiGigi Thibodeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15326335927273800932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4924211737752297463.post-44750601460466727132010-01-26T11:52:32.048-08:002010-01-26T11:52:32.048-08:00I can't believe all of that is wax!

I guess that it was obvious, when you think about it, that these collections would exist, as people did need to learn about them, and that was the only way before photography.

Your grandfather was once a director of the program? I can't believe the quality and realism of the wax models! THOSE GRAPES...my favorite fruit of all time, are jumping out to me! What a treasure indeed. Thank you for coming to visit with me; those images of food from Sacha's table are killer diller on the will-power, n'est-ce pas? But oh how lovely to dream... take care dearest and have a lovely weekend.
