What do members use to store there negatives and were do they buy them from.
I was looking for something that would keep 4 on a sheet in a ring binder if possible.

I've always used the translucent glassine type; whole A4 page for roll/35mm film & singles for 5x4. While I have negs going back 50 years or so which are OK, a few show signs of staining which may be my early processing, or the envelopes? To be safe perhaps the archival type would be best, esp for colour. Dennis.

George, I think Silverprint will probably have what you are looking for

I used to buy all my storage sleeves from 7dayshop.com but the choice has dwindled over the years.
