The Field Museum Library posted a photo:

Steel herbarium cases and office of curator. Field Columbian Museum. "As that section of the herbarium rooms now installed with the new steel herbarium cases does not afford sufficient space to allow of photographing it as a whole, this plate only partially displays the neat and compact character of these cases. They are projected in three tiers, of eight cases each, from the wall at the left. One fourth of one tier and one sixteenth of another appear in the plate. Two of the old wooden cases are seen through the doorway at the rear end of the room." 1905.
