sources for storage of glass plate negatives



Hi,

Our photo archivist is looking for a sourse for 4-flap sleeves and boxes for
a glass plate negative collection.  Her problem is that they seem to be an
odd size - about 500 5" x 8" negatives with a few 7" x 9".  There are lots
of "5 x 7" sleeves and boxes to be had, and some 8" x 10", but we can't find
any "5 x 8".  We figured we could make do with 8" x 10" boxes and some
inserts to make them the right size, but we don't like the idea of putting
5" x 8" plates in 8" x 10" sleeves.  Too much room for rattling around.
Does anyone know of a good source for odd-sized or custom made 4-flap
enclosures?

Thanks in advance for any ideas!
