Many natural history collections have large specimens, and housing for these objects requires special consideration. This system is designed to provide adequate storage for large flat items such as buckskin dresses, Japanese kimonos and study skins that are too heavy and bulky or too fragile to be hung. Because the cost of custom-made cabinets is too great for most museums, this economic solution provides adequate housing for these large pieces and the boxes can be stacked on open metal shelving.
