The Art of Preserving & Conserving Hand-Colored Photographs by Michael Ivankovich

This 34 page eBook will show you in text and photographic detail The Art of Preserving & Conserving Hand-Colored Photographs. When most hand-colored photographs were originally sold in the early 1900's, the adverse effects of the acidic mat boards and backing papers weren't fully understood and few ever thought that America would be actively collecting them more than 100 years later. They simply weren't intended to last this long. Condition will be the key to the long term value of hand-colored photographs and this eBook will help you to understand the enemies of hand-colored photographs. Some problems you simply cannot control. But most problems are quite controllable…if you know what to look for. This eBook will show you how you can protect your hand-colored photos against these timeless enemies.

 Why you need to Preserve & Conserve your hand-colored photographs.
