Adopt An Object
Support some of the most iconic objects from the Museum’s collection
The Museum of Brands collection includes over 3/4 million objects, representing consumer culture, brands and their evolution over the last 200 years.
Adopt an Object highlights a range of iconic and fascinating objects from the Museum’s collection, each representing some of the greatest brand stories ever told. From the iconic His Master’s Voice dog from the Edwardian era, through to modern times; there will be something of interest for everyone.
How does it work?
We have curated a list of over 40 of the best-loved objects from our collection for you to choose from.
You can adopt an object on an individual, or corporate basis, for yourself, or as a gift for someone else.
If you have visited the Museum and have seen an object you would like to adopt that isn't listed, please email us and we will consider your request.
Simply browse through our selection of objects below, which are available to adopt for 12 months. Prices start at just £25, and include an Annual Pass to the Museum so that you can visit your object throughout the year for free.
