Scanning photographs to a computer disc or CD Rom would be an
excellent method of keeping a permanent record of photographs
for your files as well as viewing by others. This would be
preferable to physically handling the original photos.  For
displays, a first quality reproduction would be
invaluable--this is not the place where you can cut cost
without sacrificing quality!
