where can I get deep petri dishes?

I have tried Google but haven't turned up anything. I'm after about 90 x 25 petri dishes or it could be a round specimen container.

Amazon lists them, but ship time might be an issue if you need them quick it looks like:

American Educational 7-1500-5-A Flint Glass Culture Petri Dish, 130mm Diameter, 25mm Height (Bundle of 5): Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

All my pharmacy catalogs list them by the case and range in the $200+ per case

I'm replicating this prop so they need to be plastic and 90 x 25

Off the top of my head, without actually checking the measurements, that looks a lot like some plastic cases that come with electrical tape packaged in them. Might not be exactly what you want, but at first glance, its close...

Petri dishes are to my knowledge flatter than the one in that picture - whatever that case is, it doesn't look like a petri dish.

Typically, most labs/schools use a 100-150mm by 15mm or 18mm tall petri dish. You can get them taller up to 25mm, the problem is no one seems to sell them in small packs in the 25mm tall size in plastic.... gotta buy them by the case it seems.

Only other suggestion I can say is to go to a local college and see if you can get them through the bookstore or if you know someone that works in a hospital lab or other diagnostics lab see if they can get you a few.

The measurements are actually 90x20 mm.
