MUSEUM COLLECTION. My parents had a beekeeping museum in the eighties. It was a collection of antiques and rare beerelated items. We will sell all the smaller items, to keep your shipping costs low :-), so everyone will be able to enjoy a piece of bee antiques or -curiosities. We will be adding more stuff. |
