Of course you need a special album for your wedding pictures, but what about your trip to Italy? With the advent of digital cameras, people are taking better pictures than ever, and they don’t even have to get them printed. They could live on computer screens and disks forever.  When pictures are worthy of being printed, why not store them in a truly special place?

These albums are very strong, archivally sound and have hand-sewn headbands and reinforced hinges. They come with a custom-fit protective Dur-a-lar cover.
