A Mysterious Box in Museum Collections

When we acquire objects for the collection at Hagley, we do so because they fit our collecting priorities and support our Mission, or if we’ll use them in upcoming exhibits. Occasionally, though, they are a little mysterious. That’s the case with the latest addition to our collection. The object tells an interesting story and is perhaps connected to the du Pont family…perhaps. Wooden Box - Pennsylvania Volunteers, Mexican American War, ca. 1846 (2018.12a,b) This box may look like an ordinary box, but it’s actually a very rare object.
