Hi,
 
I work for a historical organization call ed Dayton History in Dayton, Ohio.  We will be absorbing the collections of a smaller, nearby historical society into our collections in the near future.  The housing for the collections was far from ideal and we, of course, want to treat all the items before they are housed with our permanent collections.  The collections run the spectrum from documents/photographs to large home furnishings.  We have opted to treat these items by freezing them.  We have read the literature on the freezing process and understand it in theory, but would very much like to speak with someone who has had first hand experience with it (especially when dealing with hundreds of objects made from various materials, some made of composite materials like furniture). 
 
If you are willing to talk with us, please let me know.
 
Thank you,
Steve Lucht
Collections Assistant/Site Supervisor
