Any suggestions on how to preserve these?

Obviously no sunlight.

What about any type of sealer?

I will be getting some frames for them to add to my UCF room (yes a dedicated room in the house for UCF stuff all the way from the early 80s :)
 
They have lasted 16 years so far so you must be doing something right. I have some from 2007 that I store on a shelf in my home office. Interested to see if you get any good tips.
 
I have no idea if they work on newspaper, but there are spray sealant that can be found in art stores that are used to protect paintings/art.
 
Krylon UV- Resistant Clear acrylic coating- the can says works on papier mache, but also on paper. I'd test it first. Can also says doesn't work on usf stuff, lol. There are other more expensive, maybe better product, spray finishes online if you want.

Haha, I was surprised you didn't say to test everything questionable on USF stuff first :D

THX...I will try that on a section! :)
 
That's cool!

I still have my Lincoln and Omaha Sunday Newspapers from my trip to the UCF at Nebraska game in 1997. Of course they had some interesting comparisons between the 2 QB's on that day (Frost vs Culpepper).

I was at that game also but I did not save that weekend's paper :)
btw: we went to a restaurant in Lincoln after that game, and there was not one thing on the menu with corn in it NOR was there even any corn flakes in house. I'll never for get it. :)

Things I forgot about that amazing game:
1. Beorlegui (greatest name for a kicker!) had 4 FG's (game winner only one that wasn't short, as Bama kept stopping UCF in red zone)
2. UCF had 4 interceptions (including Bush's return for a TD), despite never sacking their QB
We had to call all over to find a place willing to reserve an area for a large group of us UCF fans to watch the game (there were other big state games on opposite it).
