Nice to see thieves appreciate antiques as well as the general public whom have been temporally removed from general exhibition but no doubt will recirculate and 'pop up sooner or later.
Bet they where all stolen in the 1st place, after all we are all robbers and thieves, only just some of us admit to it or even understand the concept…..

I have a good set of photographs of some of the stolen objects, taken on 4 Sept 2009 (before the robbery!) which I have offered to the museum, as they are much better than the one shown in the Mercury.

Many of the items in the New Walk gallery were on loan from Cambridge iirc.
