The New Bedford Whaling
Museum/The Kendall Institute
The largest museum in America devoted to the history of the American

Not sure if that piece
of "antique" scrimshaw you own, or you've been thinking about buying, is
real or polymer? The New Bedford Whaling Museum website has a searchable
online 'Fakeshaw' index. It is invaluable in helping to identify the large
number of fake 'antique scrimshaw' pieces that are on the open market. At
the home page for The New Bedford Whaling Museum click on the 'Research'
link which will take you to The
Kendall Institute page. The 'Search Fakeshaw' index link is in the middle of the page.
