To the MUSEUM LIST EXPERTS!! This came to me from another list that I subscribe to - I f anyone knows the best way to preserve thes - let me know and I will forward it to the author Thanks, Sharon Subject: preserving old postcards This might be a little off topic for this list, but I know many of you are familiar with historic preservation, so here goes. I have recently started collecting postcards of my town. Now I have about 50 postcards and I am wondering what the best way is to store them. I would like to frame some of them, but obviously can't do it with all of them. I really love the hard plastic sleeves that some of them came in, but I just read that over time the plastic can damage the postcard. Since I am not a diehard postcard collector, I thought maybe one of you out there might have some suggestions. I'm assuming some sort of acid free paper in an album would be the best (??). I'm sure that there is a product out there for this purpose, but I'm not sure where to look.
