The ALB albums are the Print File premium brand photo album. The ALB has a black buckram textured material covering and 1.5" D-rings. As an added feature a matching slipcase is available for the ALB-GB and ALB-SB albums. The ARC albums are a more "utilitarian" choice for photo, slide, negative or CD preserver storage. The ARC album features a highly textured polyethylene interior and exterior. The ARC-G has a 1.5" silver D-ring and the ARC-S  feature a 1" silver D-ring. Both albums are completely archival and safe for long-term storage. See all our albums here.
