Jim, I would get that poster framed as is...I would not try to restore it. As is, it looks great to me and IMO any restoration on that could hurt the value.

Great poster.
I would have it professionally cleaned by a restorer, but I would not have it restored. Paper Conservation, Alan Firkser, in New York cleans my paper items, removing dirt. Where are the game used guys in this discussion? Jerseys, bats, etc., had these in mind as well. Last edited by BigJJ; 07-24-2013 at 07:00 PM. |

I had the same concerns when I bought this piece (http://www.legendaryauctions.com/Lot...ntoryid=158797). I opted to restore mainly because it had some rust on it and I did not want it to further corrode. Otherwise I would have chosen not touch it at all.
I also agree 100% with what Mark (perezfan) said above. |
