How "healthy" is it for a color slide to remain inside a PrinFile plastic page inside a PP5 storage box? How many years?
I've noticed recently that minute amounts of dust or particles seem to be able to make their way into the "pouch" where the slide is.
Some are in these three-pronged binders and others 'hanging' inside file containers with Zorb-It desiccants inside.
Of course paged slides allow for quick viewing of groups rather than picking up each one one-at-a-time.
