This was a presentation from the 2002 International Institute for Conservation meeting in Baltimore. This paper conservation project was part of the preparation for an exhibit at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. Problems with the animation forced me to delete this from my slideshare account a few years ago.TRANSCRIPT
