Photographic Foxing
 

Posted By: <b>Elliot</b><p>Does anybody know the best way to remove foxing from a photograph or is it best just to leave the photo as is. Also, same treatment for the mat?

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>I like foxy photos.<br /><br />If the foxing is not so bad, it's best not to worry about it. I beleive it's hard to very hard to remove foxing, and beginner's attempts can make the photo worse.<br /><br />For 1800s photos, even expensive ones, a little foxing here or thre isn't of great detriment to the value. It's the equivilent of other types of wear or aging.
