Family Historian User Group

Hello all,
I have some letters written by my grandfather in 1915/1916. They are all written in pencil, a couple are very faded, and one is so thin I fear it will soon tear in the folds. They have all been kept folded in their original envelope all this time!
 I have scanned them and transcribed them so there is no need for more man-handling but how best to keep them?
 I would appreciate suggestions from more experienced family historians than me!

I would recommend getting some archival quality clear pockets and folders, they need to be acid and lignum free. If at all possible keep the letters flat and in a dark dry place.

my-history do a selection of products which should suit.

Thanks very much for that Jane..

I have purchased some archival quality storage boxes from Secol http://www.secol.co.uk/ in order to store my photos etc.

If you do a google search you fill find a number of UK suppliers.
