Subject: Map repair
I am looking for some advice on repairing a map that is attached to the inside of an old book in front of the title page. The map is almost completely torn/ broken into several fairly good sized pieces. Fortunately the end that is attached to the book is still intact. And since the map is in color, I would like to keep it in its original form if possible. At this point I could use archival tape on the torn/broken parts, but I understand that there is some way of using super or some lightweight fabric underneath the entire map. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me about this procedure. *** Conservation DistList Instance 6:23 Distributed: Sunday, October 18, 1992 Message Id: cdl-6-23-008 ***Received on Wednesday, 14 October, 1992
