[game_preservation] game_preservation Digest, Vol 50, Issue 2

[Zuraida Buter]

Bonami is a wonderful museum, I have worked with them a couple of times.
They are a very friendly bunch of people and passionate about their
collection. The collection established over quite some time. They are
currently located in an old hotel (wonderful location!) but I think they are
looking for ways to expand and showcase it in a better way (they have an
attic full with stuff and several other rooms). They do quite a few events
here in the Netherlands, where they show part of their collection and sell a
few things too.

I can point them towards the game-preservation list again, although in my
experience it works best to keep in touch with them regularly via email,
phone and face to face contact. When in the Netherlands be sure to visit the
museum and to get in touch with them up front as it is usually not open for
visitors, only by appointment.
