Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has, or could take, a high resolution photograph of bushel baskets of wheat? I need such an image for an upcoming exhibit. If anyone has one and would be willing to email it to me (please send to [log in to unmask]) , it would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks,
Keni Sturgeon

Hi Tara,
The University of Leicester Research Centre for Museums and Galleries
has done
lots of research in this field (UK) and all the reports are
available online at:
