Album Rescue

March 21, 2019

Even if you have stored your photos in comfy temperatures, if they are in the sticky magnetic albums that were once popular, they are in danger. Remove your photos from these types of albums right away. Here is a tip If your photos are sticking to the pages. Gently remove them by using unwaxed dental floss. Carefully slide the floss under the edge of the stuck photo using a gentle “sawing” motion. Slowly saw the floss back and forth using only a forward motion until the entire photo has released from the page. Don’t “lift up” on the floss as you “saw”, as this might cause the photos to crack or tear. This video from the Smithsonian Institution Archives shows the process.
