I have the following items of conservation equipment for sale
second-hand.  Offers welcomed--I have included the current catalogue
prices for information.  Please note that buyers should arrange
collection from the RNCM (or should pay carriage).

All items were purchased late 1995/early 1996, and used (by a
part-time worker working 2 days a week) for 3 years, but not since.
All in good or excellent condition.

All were supplied by Preservation Equipment Ltd, and all have
instructions(!) and in many cases original packaging/carry cases.

The items are as follows:

    Lightbox on/off switch model, screen size between A4 and A3
    No similar models in current catalogue but A3 size lightbox is
    218 UKP

    Monarch Economy polyester film welder

    Argos, Lakeland Ltd etc at the moment.  Was selling for around
    50 UKP a couple of years ago.
