Hello Margaret!
I visited Thomas Jefferson's house (Monticello) this weekend and noticed
that they used fishing line and sometimes thin picture wire attached with
eyehooks to help secure fragile books on his bookshelves in his library.
Just a thought.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] How to secure a tippy wet specimen
We are getting ready to install a new gallery featuring our wet specimen
collection. We would like to display some head slices, but their jars are
very tall and narrow and look very tipable. We are searching for a way to
stabilize them on the glass display shelves without obscuring the contents
or making them difficult to remove for photography. Any suggestions other
than museum gel?
