I am a student at the Kilgarlin Center at the University of Texas,
and I am designing a research project to study sticky shed syndrome
in audio tape.  I am seeking open reel tape samples that exhibit the
symptoms of sticky shed syndrome to use in my work.  The tape will
undergo destructive testing, so this must be scrap material.  I
would very much appreciate any tape you are able to donate or any
ideas you might have about finding this material.
