Recently recieved three very inexpensive old newspages of the Aug-Sept, 1913 Amsterdam News (New York City?). Each day or week featured a famous ballplayer -I believe. Jax, Chance and Plank are the ones I acquired. It's gonna be a pain trying to handle/frame these as they are very brittle, though in excellent condition -currently.

Page measures 24x16 and each player measures 4x6. They're hand-cut half pages. The articles are not sports related, but humorous type filler. Anticipating trouble, time and expense, I'm contemplating clipping each one along with the dated portion.

I'm looking for others experiences/suggestions in handling large and fragile paper memo.
