scgaynorThis is a problem that I have had for years. I have been in the basement of several museums and most look like this. It really is a waste and many times I have explained this to people that are trying to decide between consigning to an auction and donating to a museum.
It really is a waste, that material should be in the hands of collectors who will appreciate it and not gathering dust in the basement. At least a collector will show it off and eventually sell it to somebody else that will appreciate it just as much.
If they can't display it (and never will), why do they need it?
