This blue/gray 8.5 x 10.5 x 3" Lineco Drop-Front Archival Box 8.5x10.5x3" Blue/Grayfrom Lineco Drop-Front Archival Box 8.5x10.5x3" Blue/Grayis used by photographers, artists, and archivists for storing and protecting photographs, flat art, and other important documents.

The archival box is made from a 60-point board, which is acid- and lignin-free, making the box suitable for long-term storage. Acid levels are lowered because the board is buffered and does not transfer any contamination to the contents. Each corner of the lid and box has a metal edge for added strength and durability, which is ideal for stacking boxes on top of each other. Once the lid is removed, the box's drop-front lowers to reveal a white interior, that allows easy access without any damage to the contents.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How many photos do these typically hold?

Q: 4. What is the total number of art prints to keep in a single 3 inch deep archival box?

A: Fine art printing papers vary considerably in thickness. Here's an example of how to figure out how many will fit of any given thickness. Find out the thickness of your paper expressed in mils. A mil is 1/1000 of an inch. As an example, Hahnemühle Photo Rag Bright WhitePaper 310GSM, is 19.6 mils thick. 1000 divided by 19.6 = 51. So 51 sheets would be 1" thick. If you fill the Lineco box right to the top you'll get 153 prints in it. Now that's the theoretical maximum. You have to assume that you're not PRESSING these prints in, so they'll take up a little more space. You might have the prints in sleeves for protection. you might be using inter leafing tissue. Anything that increases the actual space taken up by each print reduces your count.
