Thoughts on laminating authentication letters, capture papers, etc

Be sure that the bag that you seal the document in, is made from Mylar. A regular plastic bag will cause the document to become brittle and more yellowed, in time.
If you want to really preserve the documents, put a piece of acid-free mat inside the bag, as well.]

I've had good luck finding all of these materials at local framing shops that do archival work, but archival-grade mylar bags can be found at many vendors online.

I have used a couple of websites, successfully:

and.....

Talas has GREAT information on the care and storage of MANY of the items that we collect.

Good luck,
Bob.
