One & all:

I've recently purchased a Mamiya 645e after finally finishing an
ages-long darkroom-building process. Have been "out" of photography for

too many years and am looking to start up again. Used to use Paterson
negative files--have about a dozen of their 35mm binders that are
overloaded with now yellowing glassine pages, and want to change over to

something with more permanence.

Any suggestions--what do you folks use for storing your b&w and color
negatives?

Thanks,

Paul Schoenfeld

I worked as a photographer for a large corporation many years ago.
The negative files dated back 25 years (earlier materials were "donated"
to the company's museum). Most of the earlier stuff was 4x5 (Speed-Graphic)
and was stored in 4x5 glassine envelopes in metal tray/drawers. When 120
film made its way into the department (in the late '60s) , it was cut into
2-frame strips and stored in 4x5 glassines in the same cabinets.
I started doing the same for my personal work, using boxes made for index
cards.

Print File makes various 120 clear sheets, which are
archival,...you can keep them in loose leaf binders
or they have a system were by the sheets are hung
in a standard file cabinet drawer.
