Re: slides
Get catalogs from companies that sell archival supplies. Light Impressions
is very good for photographic and art supplies. (1-800-828-6216). You
can either store them in plastic slide pages (within notebooks) or various
style boxes. I suspect that it would be a lot easier and cheaper to go
with boxes for the quantity you are talking about.
