Description
The object is a plastic tray with 33 formed cubby-holes in a three-by-eleven array. Each cubby can contain one film cartridge for the 1360 Photo-Digital Storage System. Each of the cubby-holes has a circular opening on the bottom. Thirty of the cubby-holes are populated with empty storage cartridges, the three empty cubby-holes are across the center. The cartridges are trapped in their cubby-holes with aging masking tape which obscures some of the labeling on the cartridges. All cartridges appear to have numeric labeling visible from the top. The primary number on the cartridges is white and for most of the cartridges this number is 01240, matching the "SECTION 1240" label on the tray.
