Hi there! My family has a bunch of old photos spanning from the 90s to the early 1900s (most are between 1910-1960).

I've searched on google everywhere and a highly reccomended scanner I've seen here, the Epson FastFoto FF-680W, and similar scanners all seem like they'd bend the photos in the scanning process, which would likely cause mine to break or tear.

I can't seem to find any good scanners out there that are plainly flat and have no bends as the pictures go through them.

I am very new to this project, any and all ideas are very much appreciated! Thank you for your time
