Old newspapers (partially OT)
Was visiting my mom this weekend and cleaning out her house in preparation for an upcoming move. I found a box in the basement of old newspapers. Apparently, my dad (and even my grandfather) liked to save old newspapers when the headline was interesting and/or important.
Most were from various dates in World War II, but here is a sampling of 2 that I saved because I found them interesting. The first is baseball related. The second shows that the classy headline writers of the NY Daily news have been around for years. I have no idea what I should should be doing to save/preserve/repair these. Any suggestions? There is also one from 1898 describing the sinking of the Maine. This paper is so old and brittle that is has split in half. I don't want that happening to the newer ones.
