<p>[QUOTE="Mill Cove Treasures, post: 4357710, member: 60"]Don't leave it alone if you want it to survive. Foxing is a combination of mold and acid damage. Mold and acid will continue to eat away at it. Eventually it will destroy the drawing too. At the very least, you need to put acid free paper between the mat and the drawing and the backing. Search YouTube for "Basic conservation of prints" and watch a few videos. If you aren't comfortable doing it yourself, contact a firm that does paper conservation and ask them how much they would charge to do it for you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
