Hi Gang,

Look on eBay for microscope slide cases. There are tons of them of
various designs and sizes. Some are the nice "vintage" wooden ones
and some are modern plastic. Prices vary with the selection. I've
seen some large ones that hold hundreds of slides. With such a
container, even the largest collection could fit into a single
container.

Best regards,

MikeG
