(with apologies for cross-postings) 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 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.
