I am a recent MFA graduate (and a Gallery Associate), whose studio practice involves various alternative methods/processes (i.e. pinhole cameras, plastic cameras, slides, various chemistries, etc), and in so doing, I often seek interesting materials such as the lantern slides you are offering. As a recent graduate however, I also have a limited budget, so I am hoping that you can provide an estimate on the weight of the collection in total, so that I can determine the final cost of shipping (I live in San Francisco).
I am eager for your response, as I believe I can offer an excellent home for your dynamic collection!

My apologies for cross posting.
We are looking for a home for a collection of approximately
420 lantern slides. The slides cover a variety of subjects, including
landscapes, industrial workers, and city scenes from across the United States.
The slides are free; just pay the cost of shipping. Please contact me if
you are interested or have questions.
