Default Storing a Delicate Photo

Hey everyone,

I recently purchased a very old and fragile (read: beaten up ) picture and I was wondering what the best way to store it was. It came from the auctions house in a plastic "bag" (not sure the proper word for it) with a piece of cardboard to keep it from bending, but I want to make sure I keep it in a way that it does not get more damaged.

Any guidance would be appreciated!

If it is worth to you get it framed by a professional framer.

If you get acid free paper or plastic sheets and store it in between that and in a book, it should store well for a long time.

Handling and rehandling of items causes the most damage.

Agree..frame it. Would present much better too, framed. Nice pic. A good frame and mat would draw attention to the nice image and minimize the impact of the roached edges.

Default Nice Pick Up!!

Don't forget to ask the framer for the BEST UV A&B deflecting glass. It is worth the relatively small extra over regular glass. I have recently read that this glass has a somewhat short life span...but then there is UV film to protect your UV glass!?!?
