They said that photos should be
stored flat, not stuck on to anything, and that the best way to protect them
was to put them in polyester bags available from art shops.
I was in an art store just last week and saw some of these for the first time. They come in all different sizes and I bought 2 packages to store lace in. I don't see a brand name on the package. (Maybe it was on the flap which I cut off.) The packages say "25 acid free and archival quality bags/envelopes with flap and re-sealable glue strip. Protect and enhance your: artwork, stationery, handmade cards, card sets/envelopes, photos, rubberstamp work, scrapbooking, die cuts, valuable collectibles. (Well, actually spelt "collectibies') I got size 8 15/16 x 11 14 and 5 7/16 x 7 1/4. Weird sizes but the first one holds 8 1/2 x 11 sheets and the other 5 x 7 cards. They must have been made for the U.S. market since the measurements are in inches. For the benefit of Canadians I got them at Loomis and Tole for $4.75 and $4.49 respectively.
