Re: help
Light is what is causing it to fade fast, now summer is here light is stronger (apart from overcast wimbledon fortnight). Also humidity and temperature variance don't help (all those things they try to control in an art gallery)

Scanning and reprinting would be a good idea, as might be getting this done professionally. Then put it in a dark place (ask a local photographers for a photo paper bag from a box of paper he has finished with)

Photo Paper quality was not as high and processing was not as dilligent back then, the paper will have an acid pH and it probably was not stopped and fixed properly.
