Old Sturbridge Village in Sturbridge, MA has the best cold storage facility
for a large collection I have ever seen. Frank White was (and maybe still
is) the collection manager a few years ago when he gave me a special tour.
I adapted many of his ideas, especially air circulation and annual dusting.
He is very knowledgeable and generous in aiding other museums.
