[Nhcoll-l] stegosaurus plaster cast repair--advice needed

[Nezka Pfeifer]

Hello all,

Happy new year! I am need of some contacts/suggestions for repairing our
plaster Stego cast that is on view here at the Everhart Museum. One of the
Stego's tail spikes has broken from its skeletal plaster but is still
connected with the steel spring, but is not stable. I have previously had a
specialist repair other issues with our Stego but he has since moved to the
West Coast and flying him in to do the repair is not the most cost-effective
option.

Would anyone have previous experience with this type of repair? Please email
any Northeast contacts that would be willing to drive to Scranton for the
repair, off-list of course. Thanks so much for your time and help.

Best,

Nezka
