<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Assuming all you desire are corrugated cardboard folding
boxes (as I remember from the 70's), why not take a good one to a corrugated
paper products company and ask them to make a few hundred of what you need. It's
just a die-cut and a few creases, then fold them by hand as they are
needed.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>My feeling is that cardboard boxes were designed to keep
dust off the tapes for a few months, and not to preserve something for the ages.
TV spots had a limited lifetime.</FONT></DIV>

reels</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Hello all,</DIV>
<DIV>I'll be receiving a small number of two-inch spot reels from a colleague
for which we don't have boxes. Has anyone come up with a solution for
housing these tapes? I believe they are 6 or 7" reels.</DIV>
