Thanks Don. I may try similar repair on old paper I don't care about. The paper repair looks easier than the color restoration. You would need a good eye to match things, plus you ould need a good set of pencils. You do other art so you have an advantage on the pencils.

Great job. But for those who doesn't want to put this much work in, post it for sale and tag Junk Journals, scrapbooking and paper craft. WE LOVE this type of stuff. If it is broken and messed up most collectors don't want it and that's when we step in and say "hey! we can craft with that!!" :)

I worked at a poster/paper restoration studio for 5 years, and while some of this helps, these repairs will be totally obvious. When adding patches or corners, you’ve got to mitre the edges of the new and old paper, or you end up with a really thick area.
@TheAuctionProfessor
2 жыл бұрын
You can't mitre tissue paper. It's NOT possible. Nor am I trying to hid anything, but rather stabilize the item. Most repairs shown are not very noticeable either. Any repair that is non-reversible is never recommend by any museum so you would never mitre the original item either. Doing the repair to frame is far different then a museum repair. One is for presentation, while the other is to preserve the historical item in way that can be completely removed at any time.

A sharp razor cut of 1/4-1/2 inch on both sides of the staple sides would make it look better without all the repairs. People would not care about the difference and would l;ook better. Just my opinion.

You should NEVER EVER remove a single thing from an original item. You would be altering it, and it could NEVER be brought back from there. If you do that to a baseball card for example that would be a no-no and could get you in legal trouble if not disclosed as well. Restoration is the only safe way. No historian on the planet would want an altered item as you suggest, and would be very happy with a archival repair as shown.
