Are Muji photo albums archival/acid-free?

Hi. I want to transfer all my family's old photos to new albums, but for cheap. Muji has a cool system but nowhere on the packaging or website does it advertise the material in their albums as archival. If anyone can tell me I would appreciate it. Thank you.


Interesting. I see they are sold by MOMA (Museum of Modern Art) but there is no indication that they are of archival quality. Being a rather cautious person when it comes to storing my prints I'd pass on these and opt for an album with "Archival" in the description.

An alternative would be to buy packs of archival quality pages that fit a common 3-ring binder. Since you probably have more than 1 size of print you can buy pages that suit your needs. You can find these pages on ebay or amazon or at your local professional camera store.

What brand of acid-free photo albums do you recommend?

I want to buy 6-8 albums at about $20-30 each for my family photos. What brand is a sturdy brand that will last and are "archival safe"? I want them to fit on a bookcase and match each other. I would prefer that there be room for notes but that is not a requirement.


I used to work at a museum and the curator there swore by the catalog from Light Impressions for acid free anything. Their outlet prices on photo albums are pretty good.

    Until recent years, archival film storage had been associated, at least in the public mind, with museums, government agencies, libraries, or other institutions concerned with the preservation of photographic records; however, other users of photographic film, such as commercial photographers, printing houses, publishers, and schools, have long been concerned with how best to ensure permanence of their irreplaceable photography. A sophisticated generation of amateur photographers who observed how time, humidity and casual storage damaged valuable slides and prints, nowadays, have converted to using archival storage techniques. They, too, appreciate that a picture good enough to keep is good enough to keep forever. Exclusive thin backing coupled with high clarity provides excellent resolution when proofing without removing negatives from the preserver. No other manufactured preserver has this feature. Also, continuous seams eliminate the problem of negatives hanging up in the sleeve itself....
