Hi Michael,

That is funny. Such a vocal anti Linen and restoration guy, now you want to do 
your own restoration.

You need help ( no pun ) So please let me help you!! :-) 

Pastel pencils are not cool. Please use water color pencils, like the one's Sue 
recommended ( brand Prisma colors ) or you can use Faber Castell? Albrecht 
Durer my preferred choice for work.

Going over a rough fold might be very tricky not having the poster backed and 
the folds made flush.

So you need to buy some archival Methyl Cellulose from lineco 
http://www.lineco.com/item.cfm?itemnum=793-1001 

Follow the instruction and ad another 1/2 of cellulose to make it really thick. 
You need a small rectangular piece of Mylar and a fine brush.

Brush the fold lightly, lay the mylar over it. Use a? burnishing tool, apply 
pressure, walk the line, remove mylar, wipe excess Cellulose, let it dry, color 
in.

Pretty easy stuff.

Best,
dario.

Michael, it appears?like you're talking about...wait for it...a?restoration 
process! 

?

And we all know how you stand on that!

?

Maybe Dario could give you some tips, or better yet, just send it to him. 

?

He'll get rid of that nasty fold line. 

?

That's my suggestion, anyway.

are no images in the area; it is?red/orange background color with yellow 
letters.)
