A sticker of a handwriting sample that reads "Embrace every opportunity of acquiring knowledge" from a collection of children's toys and scraps of handwriting found under one of the floorboards in Van Gogh's bedroom. The handwriting is signed and dated by a James Wigmore in 1861

Census records show that James belonged to the Wigmore Family. He was the eldest of 7 sons and was thirteen-years old by 1861. Wigmore’s objects remind us that by the time Van Gogh became a lodger at the house, 87 Hackford Road had already enjoyed nearly 50 years of history.
