We have many "specimens" for our trademark files. We put them in a box and identify them as "samples of [item type, i.e., t-shirts]" or "specimens for [trademark]" on our firm database system. For our vendor they are only identified by the client/ matter number and the box number [vendor box #]. Many vendors now have lockable plastic boxes for such items to cut down on potential theft. GRM calls them turtle boxes.

Subject: Physical Samples from Procurement Contracts
Okay, here's an odd one for folks to ponder. What do you do with the
sample "copies" of items that are provided when procurring various
materials through contracts. We have a contract that is being closed out
and transferred to storage that includes as part of the contract the
sample uniforms that were reviewed in choosing the final design.
The archives doesn't want to accept the uniforms since they are "not
records". However, as far as I'm concerned they are part of a record and
should be kept with the contract file.
Anyone else want to put in their two cents worth?
