This tan 8.5 x 10.5 x 3" Drop-Front Archival Box from Lineco is used by photographers, artists, and archivists for storing and protecting photographs, flat art, and other important documents.

The archival box is made from a 60-point board, which is acid- and lignin-free, making the box suitable for long-term storage. Acid levels are lowered because the board is buffered and does not transfer any contamination to the contents. Each corner of the lid and box has a metal edge for added strength and durability, which is ideal for stacking boxes on top of each other. Once the lid is removed, the box's drop-front lowers to reveal a tan interior, that allows easy access without any damage to the contents.
