Delightful and cheeky. This has such an unusual sense of humor, capturing the distanced awe and confusion inherent in so much preservation work but without the arrogance that so often accompanies those jokes. There is a real sincerity in these stories of deified objects. I am bought into their history even as I'm laughing at the 10ft tube of Colgate preserved in a hall of its own.
