Cardboard Mailing
Cardboard Mailing
What is the best way to send printed photographs in the mail?
I am a beginning photographer and have been receiving requests from people to buy photo prints from me.
I would like to send out photographs in the mail ( yes, snail mail), but would like more information on the best way to package them up.
Do I use wax paper, parchment paper, cardboard, envelopes?
Please advise and thank you in advance.
For just sending prints in the mail I used a standard manila envelope with a stiffening board, usually corrugated board, with the stamped admonition: "PHOTOS: DO NOT BEND" on both the front and back.
There are also mailers specifically made for sending photos. You can get them at an office supply store.
Make sure that everything inside is also marked with your name/address, and that your photos all have copyright notices printed on them in a way that would be impossible to remove without damaging the print. I used to use self-stick labels on the back.
