Re your question about boxes for odd-shaped objects, one of our elderly 
(83 years old) interns makes our boxes with sheets of archival board (from 
Conservation Resources), a ox cutter, and a glue gun. In that way the boxes 
are cheaper, custom-sized, and durable.

Subject: Finding Storage Box for Odd Shaped Object


> In our collection, we have approximately 35 plaster death masks. I would

> Impressions) and have not found a box suitable for the size of the mask/s.
> Everything is either just too small or way too big. I ordered a box from
> Gaylord measuring 5 1/2H x 12 1/8W x 7 7/16D and it is too small in both
> height and depth. Please email me with any suggestions about how I might
> storage these or find boxes to fit them.
