Original Toronto Star caption: Viewers admire a display in the Chinese are exhibiton at the Royal Ontario Museum. Reader says; in letter below; that the Museum protecting the art exhibition by refusing to allow personal photographs to be taken there. The continual poppin of high intensity flashburls would gradully cause the deterioration of color and ifnish on the exhibits and would eventually cause the decay of these exhibits which are thousands of years old; Don Mortimer of Scarborough writes.
