Best bet would be to copy it to something more durable or seek an archivist who could treat the newsprint.

Maybe I'm thinking of that first scene in Titanic ..? spence 05-07-2012, 08:49 AM First-time poster, everybody be nice ;) Am I crazy if I say I remember that keeping it in water would preserve it?

It;s not that impressive of an article and I'm sure I'll be in the paper again another time. Not sure if it's worth it. PRBuzz 05-07-2012, 11:51 AM Just laminate it, go to Staples get the laminate and an iron. :easy: It will likely out live you! spence 05-07-2012, 12:36 PM Is that expensive?

Not that expensive unless you're trying to frame the full newspaper...if it's just a clipping much less. Also this assumes you want to hang it on the wall. -spence vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
