Default Can a rust stain be removed?

Posted By: James Gallo

I don't think the rust will get worst if it is removed from the conditions that caused the problems in the first place. I don't think there is any way to remove the rust without a restoration label being accteched to the item. You could replace the staple, but again that might might it a less desirable item as it would not be original.

I believe rust actually stains that paper. It can be removed via some form of cleaning and pressing.

Looking for 1915 Cracker Jacks and 1909-11 American Caramel E90-1.
