When your company makes the front page or is featured in a prominent magazine, or your son makes the sports section for his winning touchdown in the big high school game, these are moments you want to preserve. One of the best ways to do so is through the use of a newspaper article preservation process. Newspaper article mounting does just that.
To get the most from any attempt to save and preserve your precious memories in print, there are three tips you should always use:
- Keep Out the Elements: To help ensure your newspaper article is protected, it needs to be as removed as possible from exposure to the elements. This means removing it from direct sunlight, keeping it dry and away from moisture, placing it in a temperature-controlled environment, and making sure it stays free of fingerprints. Many people who read these instructions will begin leaning toward the option of lamination for preservation. But it’s important to realize that lamination decreases the value of newspaper articles over time, and historically important articles will not retain a monetary value.
- Use a Film or Cover with Clarity: Of course, there is no use in preserving your newspaper article if you are unable to see the content. So, you need to ensure use of a film or cover that allows for maximum clarity.
- Full Display Options: To get the most from your preservation efforts, you’ll also want to make sure you are able to preserve and view the entire newspaper article. Choosing a display that allows you to feature one, two or multiple pages of a newspaper article will provide maximum impact and success.
