Dear reader,

Am looking for a little piece of advice on conservation of old valuable documents.

I am in possession of a number of old documents from 1800, among others.

These consist of bills of exchange, stationery and similar items.

Now I plan to preserve these because otherwise they will discolor or deteriorate under the influence of moisture.

I'm thinking about vacuuming them or just putting them in acid-free envelopes.

Or should I do both (acid-free envelope and then vacuum seal in plastic against moisture/light)?

Hopefully you can help me as I can't find anything on the internet which is the best way.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Stephen Loon
