This poster is a big ticket auction item, we were proud to be able to remove from foam board, and then reback the poster. The original glue used was not acid free causing the poster to darken. Once we removed from foam board and cleaned, we were ver…

I also went to Greece to match Duke’s photo at The Partheon.
In Arizona for Angel and the Badman.
My trip to Ireland and The Quiet Man Bridge.
My most recent addition to my collection.
Our 600th restoration in less than 3 years.
Our low price guarantee and highest quality model is working for the average collector.

in Poster Linen Backing Overkill Comment by Duke May 5
Many of my customers like the backing to clean up and remove fold lines for framing the poster. My tag line of the highest quality at the best price gets them to back a poster by us, then they become a steady customer. I got tired of PosterFx ruinin…
101 year old poster we were able to restore.
I think linen backing is ones own choice, and collectors have as many opinions why and why not to linen backing.An example of a one sheet soaking in the bath, between 2 sheets of Mylar.
lol, the majority of posters I am restoring are for Morris Everett Jr. the largest collector in the USA. With my own collection of restored posters I have them framed. The majority of posters I restore for people are then framed.Thank you, have restored over 600 posters the past 3 years, it is great saving, or bringing back a poster to its original shape.Thank you
This poster was rotting away, restoring brought it back to life… My opinion, linen backing has a purpose. I agree PosterFx is not the answer. There are many restoration services available, if getting a high price is there model, but like any business, you have to ask should it be. How many posters do you have to …Today’s restoration project. This poster had heavy toning, start of pay per view tv.

Did you ever use the methyl cellulose for this type of fill?
Looking at the original HA past sale the measurements align to the auction. Could this have been trimmed before mounting to the board?The Ben Hur is the same poster, the Nov 20 is my first attempt before removing Saturday on removing the grease pencil. The poster was originally stuck to poster board. I was able to remove the poster from the board with multiple baths, I had to peel…A question, what do restorers use to fill in small paper loss, like large pin holes, or tears along fold lines with small paper loss? It is too small for a paper fill. Are there compounds out in the art word to fill in small holes that are acid free…Washing and bleaching.
