Thanks to all of you who responded to my note asking for places to obtain "trays" (thanks for so gently correcting me). I have plenty of leads, now.
I will be contacting a few of you off list for more details.
Thanks again.

=============
The ASU School of Life Sciences received another large shell collection (I previously mentioned the Roworth collection). Much of it is still in large boxes and in no order. What I need is the myriad small (display?) boxes to sort them into so we can keep things in order in cabinets once we have them. Our Melville and some of the Roworth collections are currently sorted into small black boxes that have no lids, but there is no vendor information available.
Where can I purchase small, shallow boxes suitable for collections? I need sizes ranging from 2" x 1.5" to 7" x 4.25", and a few about 8.5" x 11" (for large lots of small shells).
I am not a professional curator or manager of a collection, and I don't even know what these boxes are called. Can someone direct me to a vendor's website?
Thanks.
