A spellbinding display of Harry Potter artefacts is winging its way to a Shropshire museum in time for the Bank Holiday weekend.
Stella Mitchell's Land of Lost Content, a museum of British popular culture in Craven Arms, will add a stuffed owl and Harry Potter memorabilia to its collection.*
Mrs Mitchell said: "The museum is not about ancient history but about modern social culture. Harry Potter fits into this theme very well.*
"When children come here they often see their own toys on display which they think unusual for a museum.*
"But they really enjoy it and it makes them appreciate and realise that one day even they will be part of history."*
The museum is a shrine to 20th century culture and history, with exhibits ranging from World War II material to music from the swinging sixties. Mrs Mitchell said: "The museum is constantly changing and we are always updating our collection with new items such as Harry Potter.
