If you know of anyone please let me know.
NY area would be helpful but I am willing to ship.
Thanks very much for any help.

I have had nothing but incredible things to say about Julia Brennen.

Graphic Conservation out of Chicago do great work. I've used them a few times for 19th century prints and I think there are quite a few fellow board members who have also used them. www.graphicconservation.com

They had to de-acidify and put it back together on the splits in the seams, then linen mount. I opted not to restore, just to conserve.

I second Graphic Conservation. Museum-quality work, very nice folks.

I second PosterMountain...
I had them remove the mold damaged sections, and mount some Bell Brand posters, based on what I saw at their shop, they could have easily restored to virtually original condition.
