[Nhcoll-l] Slide boxes?

[Simon Moore]

Rather a useless reply from me I fear but as I used to be a UK histologist about 50 years ago, I always used the flat cardboard containers with fold-over flaps.  If you wish, I can try to trace them again but may be a UK supplier.

With all good wishes, Simon
