[NHCOLL-L:4026] Question about use of the Spradlin Process for pest prevention

[Christina Kirsch]

Our museum has recently discovered documentation regarding use of the "Spradlin Process" on objects subject to moth infestations.  The process was implemented prior to the 1950's and did include the use of arsenic.  We are trying to sort out what the exact process was and what chemicals were used.  Any information would be most useful.
Thanks in advance,
