I have antique holy cards, what is the best way to preserve and store them?
I have found that the best way to preserve and store your antique holy cards is by purchasing archival safe (acid free) baseball card plastic sleeves. These plastic sleeves can be inserted into a binder. The binder(s) then can be stored in a Rubbermaid container to protect them from water damage. The Rubbermaid container should be kept in a dry dark cool place because heat can melt the plastic sleeves that the holy cards are stored in. If you choose to display or frame your antique holy cards I suggest framing a scanned image of the original instead because over time sun light exposure can fade the colors on the card. Note: Please do not use scotch tape to adhere your precious paper holy cards to an album. Scotch tape not only attracts bugs and rodents to eat away at your treasure but the adhesive on the tape will eat away at your treasure too.
