>>A question for all you experts:

>>Does any one have information about the proper storage of dye-
>>transfer photographic prints.  I have information that there are
>>conservation problems associated with keeping the dyes.  They
>>apparently do better in an acidic environment, or at least do poorly
>>in an alkaline one.  Any specific advice, directions to online or
