Is there such a thing as a museum of Histotechnology somewhere in the World or here in the States? The basic technique of sectioning and staining has not changed much, but equipment and methods have. It would be nice to know some of these old pieces of equipment and other items related to histotechnology were being saved for posterity. Items that come to mind are Histokinette tissue processors, Freezing microtomes with carbon dioxide cylinders, and the early immunohistochemistry kits from Dako and Immulok that came out in the early 70's.
I know the AFIP museum has some items but I don't know of any where else.
