Hi Matt,

I store mine in the small ~3 1/4 by ~4 1/4 riker boxes. The box fits 3 slides parallel to the short axis and 2 more parallel to the long axis. Not as efficient as a slide box with slots but the nice thing is you can see all five slides nicely displayed against the white cotton background and the boxes are not expensive.

Cheers,
Jim Baxter

Hi all,

My thin section collection is modest, but growing. I'm beginning to think about
how to store them, does anybody have any suggestions? The only slide boxes I can
see for sale are designed for the larger size slides. All advice would be
gratefully received.

Thanks,

Matt.
