With regard to Museums there's something they
could do to help the collector
community. There's a tendency for them to accept any and every thing and
just put it into storage.
I am confused - I think you have things reversed. Museums tend to be
the picky ones, and taking in new artifacts results in a fair amount
of red tape in committee, with a good number of the offered artifacts
getting rejected. The people that accept any and everything are
typically private collectors that are still new to the game and have
not figured out that rampant unbounded collecting is a recipe for
disaster.
