Great but first order arrived damaged

I ordered two, one arrived crushed, the other dented. Packing was so-so for boxes that are apparently rather fragile. Possibly crushed by a heavier box that arrived the same day... That said Adorama customer service was fantastic in ordering replacements.

Superb Quality

This is an exceptionally well made print storage box for archival photos. For anyone looking for a product along these lines, I could not recommend this one more enthusiastically. It is a very professional appearing product and well worth the cost.

Good archival storage

Nice looking boxes that present a good archival solution. Unfortunately, they were a bit banged up during shipping with some creases in the top. Hopefully they can cushion the corners a bit more...

Not Very Sturdy

I needed a pro looking box to ship photos to a gallery. It didn't hold up very well through the transportation process. and it was mailed in a larger box. kind of collapsed by the time I got it back. Just not built sturdy enough.

Archiving old to preserve

By Robin N.

This is the way to save old photo's and articles from deterioration.

You can preserve your valuable prints, photos, artwork, and documents with the Archival Methods Drop Front Box, meticulously crafted to ensure the utmost protection for items that require flat storage. Measuring 3 inches in height, 11.75 inches in width, and 15 inches in length, this black storage box is an ideal solution for archivists, photographers, and collectors who prioritize the safety and longevity of their flat-stored items.

Constructed with durability in mind, the box is sturdy enough to allow for stacking without the risk of crushing, as confirmed by user reviews praising its solid build and perfect fit and finish. The metal-edged design not only adds to the structural integrity but also includes practical enhancements for ease of use. Embossed labeling areas on both the end and side of the top cover enable neat and clear identification of contents, simplifying organization and retrieval.

The box features large radius, rounded "soft corners" on the drop-front, a design element that significantly reduces the risk of damage when handling delicate or fragile ephemera. Additionally, the top cover edges boast scalloped finger grips along the longer dimension, allowing for effortless opening without compromising the security of the items inside.

Whether you're storing digital prints, musical scores, pamphlets, letters, or newspapers, the Archival Methods Drop Front Box is engineered to provide a secure and professional storage solution. Its sleek black appearance ensures that it blends seamlessly into any personal or professional environment, maintaining an organized and aesthetically pleasing space.
