<p>[QUOTE=&quot;morgen94, post: 8199, member: 217&quot;]We have a similar situation with some of the photo albums in our tiny-museum collection, but not the cover separation issue. I took the following steps with our albums:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) I scanned each page, so I could record the placement of the photos/postcards on each page and the sequence of the photos in the album. There were also brief descriptions under each photo and I didn&#039;t want to risk losing that identifying information</p><p>2) I did a high-resolution scan of each photo individually, so visitors could see the detail without handling the originals</p><p>3) Because the lignin in the black-paper pages is damaging the photos/postcards, I encapsulated each photo between (removable) pieces of Mylar, but left the top edge open so I could remove the photo if necessary. I then used small pieces of narrow double-sided tape to adhere the Mylar pockets to the original location on the page.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
