Are they in frames with glass/plastic? The fading is much less from 
light than from various atmospheric contaminants. Even though I live in 
an urban area, I also have some prints from the 1270  on the Epson 
glossy paper that's supposed to fade easily that are a few years old and 
hanging on a bulletin board uncovered, which haven't faded noticeably as 
yet.
