Orange over 100 years ago donated to the museum



Orange that was involved in the 1891 explosion accident was donated to the museum. Orange is completely dry and the skin is black, but it seems that the original shape has been preserved cleanly enough to make it clear.

Orange of 1891 donated to the museum "Potteries Museum & Art Gallery" in Stoke on Trent, England.


Joseph Roberts worked in a coal mine with oranges for lunch in February 1891. However, before we eat lunch, we were injured in the underground and injured. I had a breath before I was taken out of the mine, but soon passed away in the hospital. It seems that this Orange is one of the relics passed to the bereaved family.

Mr. Joseph's grandchild Pam Bettaney decided to donate the orange which she wrapped in absorbent cotton and donated to the museum. According to a spokesperson for the museum, it is estimated that the fruits preserved in such a state were rare, that it dried with fire during the explosion accident and the corruption was stopped.
