charlottesville: week 2

DAY 1
just worked on cleaning and relaxing folds today.  i'll tackle the tissue again later this week, after i get a few easy ones out of the way...

folded corner
magic tools
action shot
wait a  bit..

much better!
DAY 2
more cleaning and fold relaxation.  in the picture you can sort of see the cleaned half vs. the dirty half.  cleaning sponges and vinyl erasers work magic

DAY 3
more cleaning, more fold relaxation.  and removal of the cotton fabric on the second poster with a lining, just to throw a bit of fun in at the end of the day - a little crunchy burnt spot.  we'll see how that goes once i tackle removing the heat set tissue

DAY 4
eliza is out of town so i've been shuffled to the preservation room - shelf prep and mending books

DAY 5
more shelf prep, book mending (japanese tissue with wheat paste, hinge tightening)
