Linoleum

Sandra Lougheed inquired about a reference on linoleum repair and
conservation.  The one published reference that I know about is in
the ICOM-CC Preprints Volume 11, 11th Triennial Meeting, Edinburgh,
1-6 September 1996, and is entitled "La conservation-restauration de
deux linoleums de la Maison Pasteur" by Stephane Louis Pennec,
Rhonda Wozniak,  Alain Tchapla and Jean Bleton, Working Group C,
Modern Materials, page 952.  I saw the slide presentation and
lecture at that meeting, and the results of the treatment were very
successful.  The context that it was done in is the same that Sandra
mentions, a historic house that is open to the public.
