Are you sure that you want glass exhibit cases? We had two glass exhibit cases for costume display at the Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh. The staff called the cases "the aquariums" and hated them. They were extremely heavy, and difficult and dangerous to handle.  Call the museum division at the History Center and find out more - 412-454-6000.

I posted a message about two weeks ago asking if anyone had any suggestions
for freestanding glass exhibit cases. The only response that I receive was
one from  someone asking me to relay any info. I am looking for information
on manufacturers of either prefabricated or custom made cases that are big
enough to hold one or two 6' male mannequins. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
