    I have started to add interesting covers to my collection but am not clear as to the best method of mounting them on album leaves.
    Can anyone give me a steer as to practicable methods.
    Many thanks.

    Try photograph mounts. Should be available at most reputable stationers.

    Hi...it really depends on the value of the cover and the quantity you are processing.

    I tend to use Lindner cover sleeves (or similar). Sometimes I use Showguard/Hawid mounts or Subway corner mounts. I never use any type of hinge as it can mark the cover.

    Thanks very much for your input. At this stage the value, quantity is little and few.

    get some bigger photo corner mounts, a bit dearer but worth it, the little ones don't hold!
