Brown cloth and leather bound album containing photographs (RCINs 2369574-2369611) of arms and armour and furniture, including various swords, daggers, shields and guns as well as a plate, mirror and silver items. Many of these are now in the Royal Collection.

Some, if not all of the objects photographed, were displayed at Gore House in 1853. Thompson was commissioned to photograph the display at Gore House, a display of loaned items including items purchased from the Great Exhibition and other objects loaned from the Royal Collection, Waddesdon Manor, and elsewhere. Gore House was part of the estate purchased by the Commissioners of the Exhibition of 1851, following the Great Exhibition. The house was used by the schools of Science and Art, and also hosted exhibitions until it was demolished in 1857. The grounds were absorbed into the Horticultural Society. Today the site of Gore House is occupied by the Royal Albert Hall, and the grounds by the Imperial Institute.
