Subject: [Leica] OT : Against my better judgement-storing stamps

Here's the deal, I just found some 1945 "Win the War" 3 cent stamps. The 
stamps are on envelopes and while they appear to peal off easily, I was just 
wondering if any Luggers may know the best method for removal and storing. I 
also received some War Ration books that were my grandparents. I'm assuming 
the same archival envelopes I use for my prints would work just as good for 
storage.

This was started on the Lug Forum since it has nothing to do with Leicas, 
unless you take into consderation I want to photograph the stamps with my 
NOOKY. Please try to refrane from suggesting washing the stamps with Kona 
Deep or left over XTOL soup.

Thanks in advance, Brian can of course delete this if he chooses.
