Re: [BKARTS] conservation?

[Dorothy Africa <africa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Paul
  Like a lot of binders who do repair and conservation work I keep digital 
photographs of some treatments in progress.  I would be happy to send you a 
few if you could tell me what sort of pictures you'd like.  These are 
pretty large jpeg files, but I could crop a couple down and send them 
along.  I am sure other people have similar pictures they could send you if 
you could be more specific about what sort of images you are interested in 
collecting.
