On how to display some vintage photographs I have got in my possesion now... finally! after so many years

Lots of my dear mom & dad who have alzhiemers/dementia and now live in an assisted living place.

I get very nostalgic and want to put some up around my house... I want to honor my daddy (he played in the Army Band during Korea) so i've lots of black/white prints. Also have color prints of family.. us.

My mind goes blank when I think of how to organize and display them [huh]
I DO want to keep them in a vintage display mode

I took several family photos down to Fritz Camera and had them scanned and printed in high resolution. Then I arranged them on the wall in a "collage" style display.

I have done this many, many times for my clients with old family photos. They are one of a kind most times. First have them scanned or scan them and have them on a storage type drive. Second is print out and frame or experiment with only the copies, put the photos (not the copies) and drive (I use a Flash or thumb drive) in a safe, dry and dark (photos hate dampness and light) place. P.M. me with any questions that I can help you with. Please help save your photos for the future.

I took a frame and put my Dads Navy Seabees picture and surrounded it with his medals.
