"Original' R2-D2 on display at V&A Dundee's 'Hello, Robot' exhibition.

I visited the V&A Dundee today to see the R2-D2 prop they have in their 'Hello, Robot' temporary exhibition.

The prop does come from Lucasfilm, but the very brief label intimates it's the one used by Kenny Baker. It's obviously not, but does seem the same prop seen on p27 of 'The Magic of Myth' book. What I assume is damage around the holo emitter looks the same, though some of the scuffs on the paint have been touched up.
