Subject: Storing filmstrips
I have several rolls of filmstrips created in the late 1940s that are housed in small metal cans. Although I haven't noticed any metal corrosion at this point, I would like to store them in a more archival environment. Does anyone know of an archival filmstrip container, perhaps made from polypropylene, that is fairly inert and can be used to store each roll? I've checked in the major archival catalogs (University Products, Conservation Resources, and Light Impressions) but haven't seen them listed. The standard archival 16mm and 35mm film canisters are too large to store them.
