Luther Ave
(Martin St to Leicester St)
Hello, I am the curator at the Enderby & District Museum in Enderby, British Columbia, Canada. I just received a writing box that was presented to a student or teacher from St. Ann's Well Road Evening School, Nottingham, from the Dressmaking Class in 1906. I am attaching a photo of the identifying stickers inside the box. The box was found among the detritus of an old house in Delta, BC. The box has no local significance for our museum but I thought your school might like to have it? You can reach me via this Facebook address
