Hi, I read with interest the Mastro contest but have a question. As an inexperienced novice, without knowledge of the card industry and practices [Stabilizing, the skills possessed by conservators, etc.], I hope that forum members can answer this question: Does the candidate for the Mastro employment position need to possess the ability and knowhow pertaining to removing creases from cards in plastic cases, placed underneath the legs of heavy furniture, including tables, beds, chairs, and the like; is this essential for meeting the requirements of the job position? By the way, many of you should take the opportunity to visit the Mastro residence, with all its beautiful furnishings, etc. This can really be an uplifting experience.

My best regards; I look forward to hearing from the forum members.
