Curators from across Tayside museums pick some of their most fascinating objects for this upcoming show-and-tell event.

What do prehistoric textiles, Jacobite bagpipes, a 1967 electric car and art from a Judge Dredd comic have in common? They’re among the many thousands of unique and fascinating objects held in museums around Tayside.

This special live online event from Dundee Museum Services features a series of short presentations from curators and collections staff in 16 different museums across the region on May 12 at 3pm, in which you’ll discover that even the most ordinary-looking object can have an amazing story to tell!

The programme includes:

• Captain Scott’s snow goggles from the Discovery (Mel Ruth Oakley)

• Jacobite Bagpipes from Blair Castle (Keren Guthrie)

• An early electric car, the 1967 Scottish Aviation Scamp, from Dundee Museum of Transport (Alexander Goodger)

• A drawing made during a performance event by Alastair MacLennan at Hospitalfield (Scott Byrne)

• A model of Dundee docks from HMS Unicorn (Finlay Raffle)

• A page of Judge Dredd comics art by Colin MacNeil from the University of Dundee Museum Collections (Matthew Jarron)
