In my "real" life I was recently invited to a Fellowship Event at the Zoological Society of London Library to get "close-up" to some of "ARTHUR Russel Wallace"'s landmark publications!
Oh dear! If the learned society can't get his name right then what hope is there?
Perhaps you should invite them to your exhibition to put them straight (and let Bill Bailey know too).

I just knew someone would think it was THAT Wallace!
Thinks that's why there is a picture on the poster..............

Oh dear .................. it is nothing to do with me I just think the Museum needs extra publicity as they work hard on these things.
Especially when one of my nephews friends, when he suggested they go in one day when they were in town he didn't know we had a museum!
