Photo albums are best stored in their cases of high-quality plastic. This photo is better preserved from the effects of atmospheric influences. However, this method is best suited for long storage. If photos are always visible, it will be useful to store them in photo albums with transparent insert pages, it is convenient for viewing, besides photos will not be subjected to mechanical stress.
