The collection includes a unique portrait of the professor painted on canvas, photographs and textbooks by him, diplomas, congratulatory letters and, most interestingly, mechanical devices made by him, which he used in his work and lecturing. Now museum staff – with the help of engineering specialists – will have to identify and describe it.

Other unique souvenirs are relics of art of which the professor was a collector: a typewriter – one of the first models, an Edison phonograph, an accounting calculator from 1922-1932, a snake, a device for sharpening a pencil, and a military angle measuring device.

There are also more personal items – photo albums showing activities and family life, a number of family documents, school certificates and loose photographs. You'll also be able to admire these treasures from November. ([email protected] Photo: UM w SS) © Copyrighted material
