Free Competition to Win Preservation System for Treasured Possessions and Free Personal Memory Recording Sheet Downloads
Free to download from www.memories-nostalgia.com/xmas.htm, the Memories and Nostalgia Collection has produced four special personal memory recording sheets – Christmas, New Year, On That Day and Timeline. There is also a free competition and a chance for five entrants to win one of the company’s fabulous Family History preservation systems for those irreplaceable memories. This is made from acid-free materials to the same professional archive standards as used by top Museums and tested to international standards.
“Interest in preserving memories and family history has never been greater – with main stream TV programmes focusing on genealogy, excavation, antiques and collectables, and even the recent ‘Britain’s Biggest Blog’ exercise.” commented David Waterman, of I Waterman Box Makers., the company behind the Memories and Nostalgia Collection and supplier of professional archive materials to Museums.
David continued, “What many people don’t realise is that keeping family history, mementoes and memorabilia for future generations in the wrong way will actually accelerate their demise. Shoe boxes, plastic bags/pockets, cheap albums and wrapping in newspaper and so on – all these materials contain harmful chemicals and acids – they should be avoided at all costs. This is something museums, professional collectors and serious scrapbookers have always known.”
The memories-nostalgia.com web site is packed with useful information on safe handling and selecting the right materials to preserve treasured memories. The Memories and Nostalgia Collection currently includes the Family History Box, a Wedding Box and, the very latest addition, a Baby Box. This is a complete cradle to grave archive system. All are tested to international archive-standards and made from acid-free materials.
The Memories and Nostalgia Collection is also affordable; starting at £29.99 it will appeal to every family. Compared with the value of treasured keepsakes, often sentimental and sometimes monetary, this represents a small price to pay to ward off the damage poor care and the ravages of time inflicts on them.
Inside every attractively designed outer box, there is a complete preservation system comprising a selection of smaller boxes designed to hold items of varying sizes and manufactured from high quality acid free materials. In addition, there are charts, record and memento sheets, document folders, archive tissue paper, photo frames and other inspired contents which will stimulate families and individuals, helping to suggest ways in which they can record and catalogue the happiest events of their lives.
“Keeping information on computer is handy for a few years but formats change constantly and with ever increasing frequency – where can you find a PC with a 5.25 inch floppy disk drive or a Zip drive now? Digitising the originals is a good way of reducing the potential of handling damage and of sending memories to distant relatives, but it is still important to preserve the originals safely for future generations to reminisce,” concluded David.
To enter the competition and download your free Christmas, New Year, On That Day and Timeline personal memory sheets visit www.memories-nostalgia.com/xmas.htm. Also check out all the useful information to keep your memories safe and in the best condition possible for your great grandchildren.
