              <text>Percy Grainger had a number of unique cases designed for the Grainger Museum, in preparation for the official opening in December 1938. The slanting desk case was created to showcase Percy Grainger's music manuscripts and his drawings of Free Music machine designs. Designers Pengelley &amp; Co. also created cases specifically for the Marshall-Hall Archive, a rich collection of music scores, photographs and documents. These cases can be seen in situ in the Grainger Museum in the film made in 1967 (see https://vimeo.com/455388143).</text>
