Museum collecting box
A wooden box used for collecting monetary donations for the museum. The box is coloured black with a brass slot set on top and a small screw holder built into the bottom of the box. The words 'FOR UPKEEP OF MUSEUM' are carved into the lid of the box. The black paint around the edges is scratched off, exposing the bare wood underneath and the brass slot is very tarnished.
