- User Conditions:
- Physical Characteristics:
- The scrapbooks contain items of varying paper quality and condition, some of which overlap each other in their presentation. For these reasons and due to the weight of bulky items attached to some scrapbook pages, careful handling is required. Special care is needed both when turning pages of the scrapbook and of programmes/other items attached to the scrapbook pages, especially those with inserts. Extra care should be taken when accessing overlapping/overlapped items, to avoid damage or creasing on replacement/page turning.
