If you don't mind a bit of a drive, the Hollinger Corporation is in
Fredricksburg, VA. Find them on the web at www.holingercorp.com . They
were pioneering manufacturers of archival storage products, have been in
business for 61 years. They used to be in Arlington, VA - too bad for
you that they moved!

Subject: blueboard suppliers?

I work in a small museum in Washington, DC.  I have finally convinced my

supervisors to purchase acid-free corrugated board so that I can rehouse

the collection properly.  However, the shipping is prohibitively 
expensive.  For two boxes of 40" x 60" board, which cost about $400, the

shipping is $128.  I've tried Gaylord, Archivart, University Products, 
Light Impressions, and Conservation Resources Ltd., but I can't find a 
lower price.  My supervisors asked me to find out if the board is
available 
locally.  Does anyone know if you can buy acid free corrugated board 
anywhere in the DC area?  In craft stores, perhaps?  Or does anyone have
a 
solution to the shipping issue?

Thank you for your help.
