I was just wondering if it were possible to start a more dedicated thread on a more in-depth study of preservation methods.

I was reading "Saving Stuff" by Don Williams and Louisa Jaggar, Smithsonian Conservators. With the goal of better understanding the means by which to preserve one’s artifacts (that we spend hard earned money on) for our own appreciation and for future generations. The value of a collection or item is in its condition and level preservation.

Archival boxing, acid free tissue paper, document preservation, photographic storage, humidity levels, proper ways to clean items, etc.

Is it possible to expand on this avenue and help each other with preservation methods?

Thanks everyone, Tim
