preservation question I've never seen come up before...
I just received some FANTASTIC looking Romeo and Juliet lobby
cards/photos from the 1970's (Franco Zefferelli version. They are in great shape meaning that they look new and are not yellowed or stained/ripped etc. HOWEVER... they smell moldy! I don't see mold, but if you've ever been in an old fashioned second hand store or your grandmothers attic, you know what I am talking about.... does anyone know a way to get rid of this smell quickly? Any help would be appreciated. www.starwarsautographcollecting.com http://dahoov2.topcities.com

Try placing them between sheets of newspaper, than place some heavy books or
something on top of them. I've hear that newspaper is great at obsorbing odors.
