Do not restore it!
Sir,
I know that you want old to become ANEW again but please do not restore it. You will be throwing away our past if you restore it. I have seen other photos like this from that era and they seem to have all come from the same collection that a family was holding on to before the dad passed. They are trying now to buy back all of his collection because it appears to have held some type of clues. Clues to the history of baseball puzzle. Sorry, just one man on an islands opinion! Take care Charlie Last edited by Charlie Faust III; 04-15-2016 at 03:43 PM.

Perhaps first you should talk to a restorer and ascertain what he/she would be able to do to it and at what cost to the original piece. If that stain could be removed nearly entirely without much of an effect to your poster, it may be worth it. Sorta like soaking a baseball card? Getting more information and insight will allow you to make the right decision.

I actually like the stain on it. I know that you might not find it aesthetically pleasing, but to me, it adds character. I think if you found the right antique frame for it and had it professional done, it would look incredible.
