As part of its four-year rehousing project, the Department of Malacology at
the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia is selling a final set of
collection cabinets. These are large (87" high, 44" wide and 28" deep)
stand-alone steel units with double doors featuring felt gaskets and suited
locks (one key for all). In most cases, the plinth has been reinforced with
an internal timber subframe. The plywood and steel interior is divided into
two bays, with glides for between 56 and 68 drawers. Each unit is provided
with 50 drawers made of white pine and Masonite. Each drawer measures
(internally) 18.5" wide, 24" deep and 1.25" high, and has two sets of label
carrier pins on the front face.
These cabinets are ideal for storage of artifacts, especially larger objects
that require flexible shelf spacing. Currently, 40 units are available.
Orders can be for any number up to that, but please note that these are the
last units that will be offered. The base price for one unit, with 50
drawers, packed and loaded onto customer's vehicle at our dock at
Philadelphia PA, is $300. The department will however negotiate discounts on
orders of more than five units.
Satisfied buyers of previous sets include the New Mexico Museum of Natural
History, the University of Queensland and several private corporations.
