Using BCW Pages For Your Important Photos
Even in the age of digital cameras, physical photos are an important keepsake. From an autographed 8 by 10 to an heirloom photo of a relative, keeping them safe and protected is vital. However, most of the time, simply putting them in a box isn’t ideal, as many people enjoy looking through their pictures. Overall, the most common storage method is to use a photo album, which keeps the photographs protected, organized, and displayed. As a result, BCW offers several options on create your own photo album, able to hold many sizes of photographs.
Firstly, you will need a good binder to hold the pages. Our basic options are our Black Albums, available in 2 inch and 3 inch varieties. Generally, these are best for family photographs, as they have a high capacity. On the other hand, for items needing an extra layer of protection like signed photos, the Z-Binder LX Album features a padded cover and zipper closure.
Equally important are the actual pages for your photos. The table below shows all of our available options. Regardless of size, they all have similar properties. For instance, each is made with archival safe polypropylene, and are sized to fit in most standard 3-ring binders.
| Pocket Size | 20 ct sku | 100 ct sku |
|---|---|---|
| 3 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ | 1-PRO5S-20 | 1-PRO5S-100 |
| 3 15/16″ x 5 1/2″ | 1-PRO4T-20 | 1-PRO4T-100 |

| 5 7/16″ x 7 1/8″ | 1-PRO2T-20 | 1-PRO2T-100 |
| 8 1/4″ x 10 1/2″ | 1-PROPHOTO-20 | 1-PROPHOTO-100 |

BCW photo pages and albums offer an affordable and expandable alternative to dedicated photo albums. Since the pages fit the same dimensions as our other pages, this allows you to be more creative with your display. For example, a 9-pocket page filled with different cards showing a baseball player alongside an autographed photo of that player. Do you have any other creative ideas for using our photograph pages?
