Subject: Storage of ostrich plumes
I'm looking for a creative (and, naturally, inexpensive) way to store loose ostrich plumes and feathered caps. We are located in a ninety year old brick building with virtually no climate control. Temperature is fairly constant, but RH ranges seasonally from about 10% to 45%. Controlling dust and pests is a challenge in our building, so I would like to isolate and contain sensitive materials, buffering them from the environmental as much as possible. Thanks for your help, Larry Hutchings, Curator Stevens County Historical Society SCHS Museum 116 West Sixth Street Morris MN 56267 320-589-1719 *** Conservation DistList Instance 10:57 Distributed: Friday, December 13, 1996 Message Id: cdl-10-57-014 ***Received on Friday, 13 December, 1996
