Many thanks to all for the advice regarding the "unopened" pages. I will
carry out a few experiments tonight. I have a few implements in mind -
letter opener, blunt edge of a renewable craft knife, thin piece of
plastic
that is semi rigid etc. etc.

I am also very interested in the restoration of books, cleaning aspects of
pages and covers etc. I have a few books in the subject but would like to
know if any knows of a good list / group to exchange information on this
topic, or would they be on topic in this group?

I have found the association of restorer's website a valuable reference
point. They have a section on print restoration as well as links to
suppliers and restorers. http://www.assoc-restorers.com/
