PHOTOGRAPHIC ALBUMS:
|
| |
Polyester film, available in rolls
or prepared folders, sleeves, and envelopes, is a recommended
material for photographic album films.
For conservation and archival storage applications, polyester
film enclosures allow immediate visual access to images without
the need for researchers to remove photographs
as they must do from opaque paper enclosures.
Polyester film
also serves as a good barrier between photographic materials
and adjacent textual records in the same file. The likelihood
of photographs ferrotyping (i.e., taking on shiny patches,
which sometimes results when gelatin comes into contact with
a smooth surface under conditions of high relative humidity)
in polyester film enclosures seems to be more a theoretical
possibility than a reality in practice and the benefits of
polyester film far outweigh the potential problems.
An alternative
idea is
to interleave
prints with unbuffered tissue or paper (eg. Archivart Unbuffered
Tissue, Phototex).
