I live in Oregon -- in the rainy part of the state -- in a basement apartment.
Needless to say, it's damp. Some of my things have gotten moldy. I don't
want that to happen to my (thousands of) slides!
Can anyone suggest a good way to keep my slides dry? I store them in metal
bulk-storage files (about 18" wide x 8" deep) that hold 800 loose slides.
* Do those "air-drying crystals" from the hardware stores damage/fade film?
* Anyone seen large, air-tight containers -- that don't cost *too* much --
that'd hold 8 or 10 of my slide files?
* I think Kodak recommends a relative humidity around 30 or 40%. Any
experience with long-term storage in air that's dryer than that?
Thanks...
