What is the best way to preserve posters?
HOW TO PRESERVE A POSTER Vintage posters are highly collectible items and their value continues to rise if you protect your poster from the elements that can destroy it. This free information is to help you preserve a poster so you will have it for years to come. First, you need to decide if you intend to frame it for display or just store it safely. The methods to preserve a poster are different for each of these. Preserve a Poster by Storing It If you just want to safely store your vintage posters, it’s good to keep them flat, in acid-free sleeves. Acid-free sleeves preserve your posters from dust, moisture and critters. Storing them rolled up is another option particularly if you lack the space to store the posters flat. Acid-free tubes should be used to preserve the posters rolled-up. It is not good to store posters stacked deep unless they are sealed together with plastic like shrink-wrap. Remember posters left open will accumulate dust and moisture, which will damage your posters
