An Interview about Sir James Chadwick's Nobel Prize group, with J. Schramek, was shown on Swedish Television, during (the intermission of) the nationwide telecast of the Nobel Prize ceremonies, on 10 December 2006.
Together with Chadwick's Nobel Prize medal, the Nobel Foundation presentation book and the Chadwick portrait photo; the accompanying archive of related books and research dossiers; and the accompanying group of other Nobel Prize objects made by the Royal Swedish Mint, etc.; the Chadwick Nobel Prize Archive constitutes a ready-made museum exhibit.
Comments on Chadwick's Nobel Diploma, by Dr. Burton Feldman, author of The Nobel Prize: a History of Genius, Controversey, and Prestige (Arcade, 2000), in a letter to J. Schramek, 10 June 2001
"The portfolio you sent me of Chadwick's Nobel diploma is simply exquisite. Thanks very much for sending it. I have seen many reproductions of the diplomas, but your packet is as close as I have ever come to handling one. And it's an eye opener. They can stand by themselves for beauty, apart from the Nobel link. The tooling is remarkable. Each diploma obviously must be done by hand - I can't believe any machine could produce such a work of art. And they are so classically simple and elegant."
