Lovely thread on the Lithuanian Boot at @theUL and a great excuse to tweet again the inspired exhibition photograph by Błażej Mikuła. Love the leather on leather combo. 😍 #ulCuriousObjects
His widow must have been pleased with the £5-7-6 she was voted by the University as thanks for her gift. The Boot has since had an article written about it in The Book Collector (1961), appeared in an exhibition and even been digitized (https://t.co/8T10oBA1wr). 6/
“Books shorter than this are to be called 12mo.” An old measuring stick for rough and ready sizing of tiny books. Found last week in another box of #ulCuriousObjects @theUL. #rarebooks
This is a bookmark. Two gorgeous ribbon bookmarks found yesterday in another box of #ulCuriousObjects, from an 18th-century Antwerp breviary (G.3.69-70 @theUL).

@CamLibResearch @theUL Yes, the oldest object with writing on it. But don’t forget those Predynastic Egyptian drinking vessels 🤣 #ulCuriousObjects

Fascinating talk today by Dr Andrew Burnett on Cambridge coin collections, for the @EmmaCambridge Special Collections Lecture. Great to hear our 17th-century silver coin box @theUL getting a mention! https://t.co/FIcg9DbpD0 #ulCuriousObjects
Fantastic to see our #ulCuriousObjects posing new challenges. This looks fabulous! @CamDigLib @theUL
Now this one was a real challenge due to the tiny details but we just completed this tactile replica for @camDigLib @theUL @mmpawlikowski It is an 18th century pocket globe and case (7cm across). Interestingly it shows the track of James Cook’s First Voyage from 1768 to 1771.
Looks familiar! Victorian toy theatre at the wonderful @TheNovium and ours @theUL. @Libriul #ulCuriousObjects
Really looking forward to working with @FlotsamWeaving and @borisjardine on this - and the return of some #ulCuriousObjects @theUL! https://t.co/moiAZtm1ip

A new box for the oldest written object in @theUL, a cuneiform tablet circa 2,200 BCE. https://t.co/jJrp4iZzMR @CamDigLib #ulCuriousObjects
