Product Description

Until recent years, archival film storage had been associated, at least in the public mind, with museums, government agencies, libraries, or other institutions concerned with the preservation of photographic records; however, other users of photographic film, such as commercial photographers, printing houses, publishers, and schools, have long been concerned with how best to ensure permanence of their irreplaceable photography. A sophisticated generation of amateur photographers who observed how time, humidity and casual storage damaged valuable slides and prints, nowadays, have converted to using archival storage techniques. They, too, appreciate that a picture good enough to keep is good enough to keep forever. Exclusive thin backing coupled with high clarity provides excellent resolution when proofing without removing negatives from the preserver. No other manufactured preserver has this feature. Also, continuous seams eliminate the problem of negatives hanging up in the sleeve itself. You can literally load and unload Print File preservers easier and faster. The Exclusive Hanging File System is designed specifically for hanging photographic records in standard file drawers or file boxes. Simply slide the hanger into the preserver's I.D. strip, and it's ready for hanging.

Slide Storage
Great Heavy Duty slide pages that protect my slide accumulation of 40 years (20,000). I used a lighter weight product before but it did not hold up as well. I'll buy these again.

Great Storage Solution!
I've just finished scanning about 5000 slides into my Mac Pro and this is the perfect home for them. The slides have had many hiding places over the last 40 years, but I'm sure they are happiest in these slide pages. I have them in a drawer of a file cabinet in wide 2" folders which is ideal for going back for a repeat scan if necessary - I couldn't be more satisfied. Out of the 3 packs I bought, only one page was not useable - highly recommended.

35mm Slide Pages
I am, like many long-time photographers, in the position of having a life-time of 35mm slides in boxes that I rarely look at due to the inconvenience. As a part of a retirement project of scanning the important slides into digital files so I can distribute CD copies to ungrateful relatives, I needed a way to have easy access to the slides. The transparent slide sheets are the answer. They hold 20 slides per page and fit perfectly into three-ring binders. I would have given the product a five-star rating but I found one minor glitch -- the slide pages are formed from two sheets of plastic, thermo-formed into pockets and slits cut so you can put in the slides. Not all of the pockets on my slide sheets were cut open and I have had to do that with an X-acto knife. Not a 'show stopper' but something to note.

On the positive side, the slide pages are robust, very clear, and are supposed to be of archival quality -- meaning they won't contritbute to slide deterioration from any chemical emissions from the material they are made of.

Overall a great product at a great price. The company who makes the product sent an email when they were shipped giving tracking info which is a nice gesture.

Great stuff.
