Excellent Archival Storage Box

The metal edges on this print file are a welcome change from the files I purchased elsewhere many years ago to store prints in my collection. This file is also made of stronger material than my old ones. I will gradually replace my old ones -- which are collapsing on both the tops and sides -- with this archival storage box.

The best thing about these is the price. They are on the flimsy side, but if you handle them gently it's a good deal. I reinforced my corners with tape, but even so, I wouldn't try to stack more than a couple, and would definitely not use it to haul prints around. Would I recommend it to a friend? If my friend was broke and needed simple storage, yes.
