The bizarre items missing from Scotland 's museumsTo misplace one life-size figure of a Japanese man in native costume is perhaps careless, but to do it twice is exactly What Happened at Glasgow's Museum of Transport stores in 2018.
Glasgow Life, The Body which runs The City 's museums and galleries, lists both items as " unlocated to date".
Elsewhere in Glasgow, the Hunterian Zoology Museum had a dolphin skull stolen some time between 2010 and 2021, while The City 's " no mean city" reputation perhaps explains why a set of iron knuckle dusters went missing from The People 's Palace in 2005.
Meanwhile, South Ayrshire museums reports That a " large bottle marked Poison" is missing from Rozelle House in Ayr.

More Than 4,000 items are reported as lost, stolen or missing at the National Library of Scotland , which includes book titles such as Among Thieves, To Catch a Thief, Plunder Squad and A Burglar's Life Story .
Other riskier titles, such as The Irish Kama Sutra and Sexual Anomalies and Perversions are also missing.
The National Museum of Scotland reports That a flying suit, goggles and flight jacket were stolen in November 1986 - a robbery perhaps influenced by the fact The First Top Gun film came out just weeks before.

A rare 18Th Century yellow diamond ring belonging to Hunterian founder Dr William Hunter was among the items taken at a time when and the glass cases had clip-on fabric covers.
But it is not just museums and galleries which are targeted by thieves.
The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh reported five instances in 2022 where people trying to steal plants and seed from public areas of the Edinburgh garden were intercepted by staff.
The world-famous garden had previously been forced to install CCTV after.

Many organisations suggested That poor historic record-keeping, and the mammoth task of digitising these records, meant most missing items were just That , and had not been stolen.
In some cases The Missing items do turn up again.
Glasgow Life recently had a painting That was.
Children Wading, painted by Robert Gemmell Hutchison in 1918, was stolen from Haggs Castle Museum of Childhood in 1989, but was found after being put up for auction by an unsuspecting seller.
