Poster Mountain

This Sarsparilla poster was deemed a "shred" by its owner, but he sent it to us anyway hoping that we would be able to do something with it. We love projects like this poster because it gives everyone a chance to flex their conservation and restoration muscles.We've seen and fixed posters in worse shape, but any chance to fix a piece with large areas missing and old, brittle paper is a challenge that we welcome. The poster was linen backed first to stabilize the original paper and give our restoration artists a solid foundation on which to build. The client opted to do full restoration, so we had to add paper onto the entire left side of the poster. Although we have boxes of "throw away" vintage posters that we find or people give us, but it is rare to large sections of unprinted poster paper.  So for this patch job we made do with a several large patches instead of one long one.  Seeing this, I do have to wonder what on earth is scrofu...

 In July 1965, The Beatles released a song titled “Help!” with the ever so famous lines: “Help me if you can, I'm feeling down And I do appreciate you being round” It was the fourth of six number 1 hits in a row for the English rock band.    Flash forward and take a leap of faith with me in that this song was written as foreshadow for Poster Mountain.   2014 quickly has become the year that John Davis needed just that, Help! We now have four new employees that will be working to continue the great works of those before us in restoring and taking care of your precious posters and fine art.   Let’s quickly introduce you to them and talk about our first team project.
