Take it to a professional photographer is good advice but personally I would not want ANYONE messing around with the original ie treating it directly. I am (very) aprehensive about laminating as a long term solution. <snip>
fantastic advice.

Laminating will put a layer of glue on the front of the image, over time, that glue will change its chemical properties, go brittle, discolour, as will the plastic in the laminate.

Laminating is great for greasy spoon menu cards, but not for posterity. You would not be looking at the image now if had been laminated in the 90's
