Another Question On Preserving Autographs

Hi folks,

I've got another question about preserving autographs that I hope you'll be able to help me with.

Basically, my autographs are in my room at the moment and I have them archived in an archival box and the autographs themselves are contained in polyester pockets in the aforementioned box which is airtight.

Am I right in thinking that this should protect the autographs from sunlight and light from my room light?

I am quite conscious about the fact that I don't want to damage my collection and have done everything I can think of to follow advice.

Also, how often should you check your signatures to make sure they are OK still etc.?

Thanks for the advice.

Rob

I double package my collection in Mylar sleeves and include an acid-free board as well. The outer sleeve is a magazine size Mylar Gard. If you keep the collection out of the sun as well you should have no problems. The sleeves are crystal clear so presentation is not a concern.
