It also requires soft but stiff dividers to separate the photos within. Storage containers should be packed on a wire rack or pallet to keep them off the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Envelopes or file folders make for adequate dividers as long as each photo is stored separately and covered completely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo albums with acid-free sleeves, sheet protectors, or photo corners also make great photo dividers. Avoid all adhesives, as they contain acids that deteriorate the quality of printed photos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The preservation experts at the National Archives recommend dividers made from cotton or pure wood. It\u2019s essential not to use paper that contains any form of acid. Polyester film sleeves can provide extra protection for photos as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Larger, flexible prints should instead be rolled up and stored in tubes within your storage containers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organize Photos<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organizing photos requires more than just placing photos into containers and storing them in a dark, cool area. While organizing photos into containers, care must be taken with sensitive material, such as the required specialized handling of archival negatives.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Flat and Well-Fitting<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The stiff divider and storage container must be large enough to allow each photo to lie completely flat. Selecting sleeves or corner tabs that are too small will damage and dogear the picture.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>No Overfilling<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storage containers should be filled with enough photos to loosely fit without cramming, but full enough not to allow shifting during transport. Fill additional space in the container with non-acidic tissue paper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overfilling an album will cause the spine to break and pages to fall out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Digital Conversion<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15168\" src=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion.jpg\" alt=\"Storing Old Photos and Preserving Precious Memories - Dogital convertion\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion.jpg 1900w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-90x60.jpg 90w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Storing-Old-Photos-and-Preserving-Precious-Memories-Dogital-convertion-135x90.jpg 135w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make a digital copy of an old print photograph using a digital or smartphone camera as a backup.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many options available, but the more thought and care invested into storing old photographs, the higher the quality of preservation for these precious memories will be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is a promotional content.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photographs are a popular way to preserve important moments in history and precious memories too.
