    Subject: Archival care of postal stamp collections

    While I'm well-versed in the care of traditional paper records,
    I've recently had a couple queries concerning the proper storage
    of stamp (postal) collections.  Is there anything unique to
    providing proper care beyond acid-free environment, stable
    temperatures and protection from exposure to light?
