Hello folks --
I have been asked to assist in shipping an 18th century Northwest Coast
wooden bowl or ladle that is "oozing with oil" from a private donor in
Oregon to a Native Tribe in Alaska. Those of you who work with
Northwest Coast Native collections will be familiar with this sort of
residue. How would you go about packing? The donor is not local so
they would first have to transport the piece to our museum and then we
would pack and ship. Any thoughts or guidance you can provide would be
much appreciated (for both "legs" of the journey).
Many thanks!
-- Pam
