I have been buying a lot of photos lately. Any way to safely display them? And how should i go about storing them?

I bit the bullet last year and invested in various types of archival storage items that museums use (P.A.T. passed photo sheets, acid free paper, boxes etc). First things to consider is long term and proper storage, the photo sleeves themselves need to pass P.A.T. (explained in this link) I chose Gaylord Archival as their selection is massive (but their prices are on the high end, you can Amazon a similar product for less.)

I used different sized sheets for the various photos and documents to preserve and then put them in binders, then into gray boxes. Everything is now neatly organized and is archeologically safe for many, many decades and can be easily either viewed or stored.
