User keywords, or 'tags', are words added to object records by other users to enhance their discovery. You can add keywords that may be useful in helping others find this object.

We are experimenting with tagging because sometimes museums describe objects in language that is highly specialist and user added keywords are useful in bridging the 'semantic gap' between the language of the museum and that of the user.

Any keywords listed have been added by other users like yourself. You can click on them to use them as search terms to dicover other objects. User tags

Description
Model car, 1992 Rolls-Royce Corniche IV Convertible, 1:24 scale, die-cast metal, designed by Franklin Mint, Pennsylvania, USA, made in China, collected by Michael and Jan Whiffen, Woree, Queensland, Australia, 1983-2009

1992 Rolls-Royce Corniche IV Convertible (white)

This model represents the 1992 Rolls-Royce Corniche IV made by Rolls-Royce Motors (1971) Ltd, of Crewe, Cheshire, England. The Corniche was the coupe and convertible versions of the Silver Shadow, made between 1971 and 1996. The Franklin Mint created this white Rolls-Royce Corniche IV as a test-market item to gauge the car's appeal compared to a blue version. This white one proved to be less popular, was produced in limited quantities, and discontinued in 1996. It has a Certificate of Authenticity.
