Re: How To Preserve Your Autographs

I have the plastic pockets to put my autographs in I am just wondering if the glue dots would be safe to stick the autograph to the pocket the link is below

Link: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bostik-Sticky-G ... =glue+dots

They are removable and apparently no mess so what do you think?

I have tried White Tack and Blue Tack and they both leave a stain on the back of my autograph.
Please everybody Like my Autograph Page :D

Plastic sheet holders are 95% all the same. As long as it says "Acid free" and "Protector" buy it.
Very simple.
Britney Spears==>> 6 #1 albums. 2 diamond albums. 8 platinum albums. 400+ awards. 200M+ records sold. Britney has sold over 45 million records this decade despite only releasing three albums. Globally, Britney has more #1 singles than any other female artist except Madonna and Rihanna. "Oops!...I Did It Again" by Britney is the 5th best selling album of the 2000s decade worldwide. Britney is the only female artist to chart her first seven albums in the top two of the Billboard 200. Britney has achieved at least one #1 album in 3 different decades (90's, 00's, 10's). Britney is the first solo female artist from the 90's to reach 1 billion Spotify streams. Despite NOT even being a single, 'Tom's Diner', ft. Britney , has become Giorgio Moroders best-selling digital track. 2015 Billboard Awards ratings reached a 14-year high, with numbers peaking during Britney's performance. She IS the princess of Pop.

Hi guys. I am a newbie at autograph collecting, but I have a few questions.

I read on there that keeping your autographs in ziplocks are a bad idea because they create moisture. I put them in ziplocks until I found the PVC free pages. Does the damage occur right away, or over time? It's been a few days with no problem.

I know the archival quality and PVC etc are generally the best, but will the plastic from these cases smudge the ink from the autograph or photo, or cause them to fade? I am also worried about dust and dirt getting on my autographs, which was why I wanted something that sealed. Does anyone have any ideas that could help keep the PVC pages clean?

Thanks guys. I hope I don't sound too silly. I appreciate the help!

Overtime.

It's only been a few days. Like food, it doesn't start to go bad until some time has passed. Dont keep them in there . Go to CVS, Giant, or Walmart and get a pack. There is 12 in a pack so that should hold you over until you get more photos in the mail. You wanna be able to keep them OR even sell them in the future if you want to...and people aren't gonna buy them with things on the photos. Take them out ASAP.

I put a my autographs into photo albums that open like a book that wedding photos go in. Self asiseve ones. I have about 10 albums all full. It's the ones that go in and they have the see through thin paper stuff that goes over them and secures them so they stay in nice and secure. That's the best way for me.
