Hi Joseph,
When I have the good fortune to find and buy a very old book or photo 
magazine, I have some magazines from the 1930's pertaining to photography 
and a few from Russia picked-up when on assignment over there.  I put them 
in zip-lock bags sealed.

I squeeze as much air out then seal it. And rarely are they opened unless 
it's someone truly interested in the subject. Even then they wear white 
cotton gloves while turning the pages.

Hopefully this helps in keeping them for another 50 years or more. ;-)
