Abstract
The author describes the conservation treatment of albumin prints as well as the condition of documents which had been frozen, transported and freeze dried. She suggests ways to minimize problems encountered and lists nearby sources which should be located for supplies and facilities, as well as larger regional resources, e.g., for blast freezing and vacuum freeze drying. She treats the need for education of nonprofessional contractors in standards of preservation and treatment. See 17350 for description of disaster and emergency measures.
