Photo albums

[Heather]

My father asked me this evening if I knew of anywhere to find the little corners that go in the old photo albums. He has a bunch of old family photos that he wants to properly mount in his photo albums but isn't able to find the corners. (He has quite a few photo albums with the heavy black paper in them.) Do they they still make these available anywhere? A craft store maybe? Or an online website suggestion? My dad is coming over tomorrow (Wednesday) to show me old photos and give me a family history lesson and I'd really like to be able to direct him somewhere. I'm saddened how much photographs are becoming extinct.

Most any art supply or crafty/scrapbooky type place should have these -- the brand I've seen is called "Allegro," and they come in a poly-bag pack for $5 or so. Amazon also has them online if you can't find them locally.

The modern corners have a peel-and-stick back, unlike the originals which were lick-and-stick, but they'll probably hold better. Don't forget to get a bottle of white ink to write in captions on the album page under each picture!
