Love this! The most potentially dangerous thing I ever found in a museum store was a microscope slide of anthrax. Anthrax spores can last for decades in soil. My manager said if I died of anthrax I could be posthumous second author on the paper when he wrote it up

When i was volunteering at my county museum this summer, we found wwi explosives casings and we couldn't tell whether they were empty or not. The curator contacted the fire or police department to come look at them but they didn't respond for WEEKS. So we just had these metal cylinders in the quarantine room that we couldn't be sure wouldn't randomly explode. AND the curator told me that she had found active explosives a few months prior that had to be disposed of! So yeah... crazy stuff!

Professor, I'm glad to hear that you are keeping safe. BTW, I understand that the sites occupied by Lewis and Clarke's expedition are now traceable from the mercury left behind from members of the group who were being treated for syphilis using mercury. I look forward to your videos. Keep them coming.

Thank you, as always, for your kind comments. I hadn't heard about the Lewis and Clark connection, but that is very interesting!

Great Video! I'm just wondering, in what siuations is it not okay to wear gloves to protect youself?

Safety should always be our main priority but some objects are easier to handle without gloves. Paper, for example, is usually handled with clean, bare hands. If there is a known toxic substance on the paper museum pros may opt for gloves. It depends entirely on the composition of the material and the comfort of the handler. I hope that answers your question!
