40 at 40 - Part 3
In part 3 of the 40@40 series (you can see part one here and part two here) there's a very eclectic mix of objects. But my favourite is the 1956 edition of National Georgraphic (object 24) which included a feature about this region with some Kodachrome-tastic photos.
Object 21. Painted dowry chest - 2008
Object 22. Codd neck soda bottle
Object 23. A gold tablar locket - circa 1900s
Object 24. An issue of National Geographic Magazine - July 1956
Object 26. Arabic Dictionary
Object 27. Labour card issued by the Abu Dhabi government - 1973
Object 29. Asahi Pentax camera
You can read about all the 40@40 objects here.
[PS Objects 25 and 30 are missing from this post because it's missing from The National's YouTube channel. Will add it here as soon as I get access to it.]
