About Archival Methods Newspaper Kit Metal

Under the right conditions, the longevity of your valuable documents, such as newspapers and magazines, can be significantly enhanced. Our 16x22" Broadsheet Flat Newspaper Kit, crafted by Archival Methods, is designed to provide these optimal conditions. This comprehensive kit includes a sturdy, spacious drop front box, 10 durable polyethylene bags, and a metal desiccant canister, all designed to ensure the safe, long-term storage and preservation of your documents.

The archival quality polyethylene bags are perfect for individually storing and protecting your papers, while the drop front box offers an additional layer of protection. The box is designed to be stored in a cool, dry environment, such as an air-conditioned closet, to avoid temperature and humidity extremes that could damage your documents. Remember, if the environment is uncomfortable for you, it will likely be uncomfortable for your stored items.

The kit is designed for ease of use. Simply measure the length and width of your newspaper or magazine and use the appropriate kit. To ensure the longevity of your documents, avoid packing them too tightly in the storage box. Instead, pack them loosely to avoid unnecessary stress on the papers.

The included metal desiccant canister plays a crucial role in absorbing moisture, further safeguarding your documents from potential damage. While newsprint is inherently a poor candidate for long-term preservation due to its acid, lignin, and other impurities, our kit helps to extend its lifespan.

For documents of significant historical or personal value, consider reaching out to a paper conservator who can neutralize some of the harmful impurities. However, for most, our 16x22" Broadsheet Flat Newspaper Kit offers a convenient, professional solution to extend the life of your newspapers and magazines, accepting that they will naturally yellow and become brittle over time.
