<p>[QUOTE="mirana, post: 8218135, member: 79705"]Yeah that mat and frame are damaged and also damaging the piece. Remove post haste. If reselling you can do so without any additionals, but I would get an inexpensive acid free mat cut (or pre-cut) and some acid free backing, mount, hinge together and sell matted without a frame. It will elevate the piece cheaply but hopefully show that the piece could be displayed nicely even if it might have acid lines or water damage underneath.</p><p><br /></p><p>It's worth at least the $25. You could market the Disney angle and also the nursery decor angle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
