The Jensen Arctic Museum is presently providing storage space for, of
all things, a tropical seashell collection.  There are over a
thousand items, 95% of them numbered and listed in an inventory with
collection data.  80% of the collection is in storage cabinets.  I
have told the donor that I will try to help him find a home for this
collection. (I want it out of my limited storage space)  Anyone out
there interested in this for education purposes, or as an example of
the collection mania that seems to infect most humans, or simply to
fill out or back up an existing collection.  More details on request.
