<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 164355, member: 56"]I vaguely considered the same. I was thinking in terms of trying to salvage the signature, removing the photo from the present mat and then re-matting it with the signature affixed below it like a label. That could probably be done if you are clever with such things, but at the very least you would need to retain a photo of how it looked when received to justify the changes, especially the signature which, after such a repair, would look like an addition. </p><p><br /></p><p>I saw this in a thrift store and didn't buy it because of the damage, but it was on my mind during the following week. I thought I'd like a photo of it just for myself and figured there was a good chance no one else would have bought it in the meantime for the same reasons. Sure enough it was still on the shelf and now... not only has it been rescued, but it's done a bit of traveling and found a new home (a couple of them one way or another).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
