To have a 1926 Sporting News supplement professionally restored, or not?

Unless its the Ruth (and even then probably not) I don't think it worthwhile to have it professionally restored.

I have a few and just keep them in a photo album.

+1 ...the return on investment most likely would not pay off. Get a big top loader, stick it in it very carefully, and be done with it. ON inexpensive paper items I have, a few times but not too often, I have used some archival tape to hold pieces of paper together. I only do it as a last resort but it's basically free and can help a lot with the stabilization of a paper item.
