I am looking for some advice on repairing a map that is attached to the inside
of an old book in front of the title page. The map is almost comletely torn/
broken into several fairly good sized pieces. Forntuately the end that is
attached to the book is still intact. And since the map is in color, I would
like to keep it in its original form if possible.
At this point I could use archival tape on the torn/broken parts, but I
understand that there is some way of using super of some lightweight fabric
underneath the entire map. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me
about this procedure.
