Posted By: <b>Mark Evans</b><p>Can anyone advise where I might find a resource to learn how to repair a pinhole? Please be assured this is strictly for personal aesthetics and regards a card which has little value in any event. Thanks.

Posted By: <b>Tim James</b><p>I'm not aware of any process that can "remove" a pinhole.I have 15 years exp.in archival/museum framing.There are ways however,to reverse staining from acid burn and other flaws.If the card has sentimental value I would suggest working your way backwards carefully with a dull pin to push the separated paper back together.You can also touch it up with color,but of course this a no-no with a card of value.
