Scott, what I've done in the past is to find old multiple pane windows with individual panes being about 8" x 10". Paint frame to suit your decor & then mount photos in the back of each pane. Then cover back completely with sheet of whatever to protect them. I don't have a photo available of mine, but you get the idea. Windows can be found at garage sales cheap. Different windows for different size photos. Sam

For posterity you could,if you haven't done so, download the pictures into the OG old gas station picture album and share with all.

Something I look for is picture frames at Goodwill/Thrift stores. They usually have older prints or whatever in them but you can usually pick them up for $1 and up and just take the pictures out.

One thing to consider if using these ideas,is that old window glass and old picture glass is not UV filtering glass. If these pictures are something you want to keep for a long time,they will bleach out, under that old glass. Thanks, Dave.
