Duh....I guess I should remember the email list doesn't accept
attachments.
It looks like I will have to write the Manchester museum via snail
mail....they don't accept email inquiries.

Hi there,
The museum is:
The Gallery of English Costume, Platt Fields, Manchester.
It is open to the public but you may have to ring first as Manchester
have reduced some opening times and you need to check. Information
about the gallery should be accessible via the Manchester Art
Galleries
website. If you have problems getting in touch, come back to me and
I'll find you other info. We saw some photos of the bodice at our
meeting in Settle but we do not have the copyright on the pictures so
have nothing on our website yet. It is a very attractive piece and
quite unique. We ought to be able to do something about pictures
once
the conservation has been done, I think.

Hello, I was reading on your website about this bodice:

Can you tell me what museum in Manchester has this bodice?
There are a
number of folks on a historic costume email list who have just
heard
about it and would love to see some photos. Any information on
where it
will be exhibited would also be appreciated.
Thanks,
Saragrace Knauf
Best wishes,

Thanks for posting that! I'm very excited now and can't wait to hear
what happens
with the conservation. Maybe one of you lucky people out there will
get to hear
about what's going on (or even get to work on it!)
-dreaming of European museums now....mmmm :D
