Selected Client Highlights of the Year We advised Eton College on a three-way collaboration involving the University of Birmingham in the UK and the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore to enable the sharing and exhibition of a huge number of Egyptian and other antiquities owned by the College. Under a 15-year deal, Birmingham and Johns Hopkins will be able to exhibit many of the treasures from Eton's Myers Collection and use them for teaching and research. In return, the universities will catalogue and digitise the collection for free internet access, as well as undertake vital preservation work. The College will retain a number of items for its own teaching purposes throughout the 15 years and plans to establish its own permanent exhibition of the collection at Eton when it returns to the College.Eton's Egyptian treasuresInternational audience benefits from deal to share antiquities"We have a longstanding relationship with Farrers and this paid dividends not only in their understanding of a deal with as complex a structure as this, but also during the negotiation. Through twists and turns, with patience and thoroughness, Farrers ensured that our objectives were met, keeping control of the project in both a legal and commercial sense."Andrew Wynn Bursar of Eton College30Farrer & Co | 2010 ReviewFarrer & Co | 2010 Review31
