Review on 🍎 Apple Red Fabric Frame Cover Photo Album - Holds 300 Pockets for 4x6 Photos by Kristen Reid

Revainrating 4 out of 5

For FLAT photos only.

This album was purchased on July 4th. Yesterday Revane sent me a request from a customer who wanted to know how many sides this album has. Short answer: 50 plastic photo pages (each double-sided) and two paper pages (one front, one back) for notes etc. The album has a removable transparent plastic cover. The album cover itself has a hard fabric cover. I realized I should have mentioned a few more things, so I'll do that now. Many photo albums use plastic sleeves or photo pockets. It's not like this. Instead, a sheet of clear plastic is used to cover the entire vertical height of the page. You need to insert your photos between the transparent sleeve and then smooth it out. The plastic sticks to the plastic side from underneath by surface adhesion, almost like static electricity. A bit like a cellophane wrapper that sticks to your hand through static attraction. I don't think static electricity is actually involved, it's more of a surface tension effect of sorts. This is good for photos that lie flat. As for me, I have a lot of old photographs that have been badly distorted over time. This album is useless to them. The images just slide around the edges and spread across the floor. If your photos are flat this product may work, but if your photos are curled (even a little), keep looking. I will look for a new album. A vintage look with paper pages to stick photos on. But first I use a document scanner to make secure copies. From the good old days I remember a type of glue that came in an orange glass bottle with an angled rubber dispensing cap and a slot for the glue to drain. do you remember them I will start looking soon. I hope this has been of some help to everyone.
