    Storage question....

    I am wondering how you guys store all your autos you get TTM. I have gotten a few 5x7s, and index cards. I am wondering if one of the photo albums where you pull the plastic off and then put the items in there and then smooth the plastic back down will damage the auto after time? Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions?? Frames are getting expensive, haha.

    I have file cabinets and manila folders with a printed out name and profession. I then have them all archived on my computer by name, type of item, profession, book value (for insurance purposes) and a photo...

    I personally would not store photos in the photos albums where you pull the plastic back. My mom has some and they have ruined some of the photos she has stored in them.

    I use top loaders on most of my cards and store them in cardboxs. My photos, I also use top loaders. My card store sells 4x6 top loaders to 8x10 top loaders. I know this can be expensive but for me, it works. I use small photo books for index cards where oy uslide the IC in them.

    Thanks guys!! I was mostly wondering for my 4x6s, 5x7s and 8x10s. It is getting expensive to keep buying frames for them, haha.

    I pick up document sheet sleeves from Office Depot, use some of my wifes acid free scrapping paper and store in binders, easy to flip thru like the card binder

    I use Avery sheet protectors. I just have the 8 *10 ones since that is all that Wal Mart sells, but they are cheap, acid free, and archival safe. I then stack those on top of each other in a file cabinet.

    They also make binder pages for 5x7's I believe. I have a few around here somewhere. I store all of my TTM auto's (mostly cards) in binders. The pages are made by Ultra-Pro. You should be able to find them on Amazon or Beckett.com, for example. If you have any questions let me know.
