Hey everyone,
Hopefully this is the right subreddit to post this.
Long story short, my parents emigrated from Poland in the early 1990s. They lived in Brooklyn and then purchased a house in Queens from a Polish family in 2001. My parents never had direct contact with the owners, but have held onto anything they found interesting/important.
Among these documents are two hand written diaries with entries starting from the 1920s up until around the 1950s. As well an entire book with a collection of newspaper articles from the 1920s.
these things have been laying in our garage for years and we would like to preserve them. What would our best options be? Thank you!
If anyone is interested in other pictures I can take more.

Also just a quick edit, the diary entry from 1939 they were already living in New York and had just received news of the break out of ww2. The original owner of the house fought in ww1 at the battle of Verdun and also has diary entries from that period.
