A communication from Pol Herman to BSI (e-mail of 20 August 2022) conveys information kindly provided by Leny van Lieshout, of the Stadtsmuseum Grave, on a drawing that was made, when the font was dug up, drawing that ought to be in the collection of the Koninklijke Nederlandse Akademie van Wetenschappen. The font in question was beleived to be from the St. Elisabeth church in Grave, and is now believed lost. [NB: we do not yet have access to the drawing 26 Dec 2022]. The present baptismal font and cover in use in this church are modern.
