Is it stolen if it's recovered from an old abandoned society/building?

Somebody's been watching James Acaster..?

No. People can donate things to museums. I'm sure there are museums that don't have stolen goods in them.

@Rusafu depends on where those items are donated from, right?

Yeah, donated items can be stolen goods. But there are places that do the research into the origin and do the due diligence.

most smaller museums that cover local history run like completely on donations or ethically purchased items.
