I won't lie; I saw the paperclip in the thumbnail and thought this was going to be about actual paperclips. Now I'm both slightly disappointed and pleasantly surprised.

"We've got a French Letter here..." I take it that euphemism isn't in vogue any more? Well I giggled.

@cliftonfowler5063 5 лет назад

So did I.

@Garbaz 5 лет назад

To save anybody who doesn't know (like me) a googling: It's a euphemism for condom.

How can anybody be so smooth as Keith? No matter what, he has a witty answer.

Brady, you really have to stop licking all the specimens. Great video as usual :D

I always imagine Keith playing the organ with air and steam blowing his hair up straight, with his arms wide reaching the outer keys, standing on an antique wooden stage so we look at him from a low perspective while he is blasting everyone away with his epic classical organ madly. Or is that just me?

4:04 This innovation of adding phosphor to the copper worked. Even today, ship's propellers are still made of "phosphor bronze", as well as various other marine fittings.

I love the way Keith managed to say "French Letter" without even the faintest hint of a smirk.

@STOG01 5 лет назад

Yes, I too would be excited by something as mundane as an old, old wrapper. Even a newspaper as old as 20-30 years can definitely be an interesting read. Not to mention a form-letter from 200+ years ago.

@brokentombot 2 года назад

I think my fav bit of this is the lucerne paper. I thought of the logic of Lucerne milk company and how cows are fed alf-alfa a lot. A connection I would have never made without watching some blokes mill about a library looking for attachments.

@@1996Pinocchio Hi! Historic means something very important in history. Historical means something that happened in the past. Some objects can be both though.

how is it that people back in the days all used to have such impressive handwriting, whereas these days most people's writing looks like a bird pooped on paper....? i mean even if they try, most people don't have the talent to develop such a script, yet in the old days it seems all were able to...

Please, wear gloves when handling artifacts! Especially because this is about tarnish on metal surface - touching it with your bare hands will cause a different/additional tarnish in just a couple of hours.

@erniejohnson547 5 лет назад

How do you get away with handling historical artifacts without wearing cotton gloves. Do you not have any concept of museum protocol? Disgusting!!

@MrPictor 5 лет назад

The protocol is to remove gloves when handling paper documents. For safety reasons.

@Imaginary_Channel 5 лет назад

Agreed! Paper without gloves, but the items wrapped IN the paper WITH gloves!! Especially because this is about tarnish on metal surface - touching it with your bare hands will cause a different/additional tarnish in just a couple of hours!
