ONE SHEET, DONALDSON LITHO, MAGIC POSTER, |
| Poster was first treated with a facing whereby entire object (including the backing) was washed and mounted face down on museum board using a proprietary gelatin technique. The gelatin was allowed to partially cure in a cool environment for approx. 7 hours. The backing was then peeled away by hand, removing the canvas, chartex, and a thin layer of the poster paper in a controlled "skinning" technique. The poster was then rinsed, flattened, another gelatin facing was applied, and allowed to cure completely overnight. Poster and facing materials (a nonwoven polyester support) were then lifted off the board and trimmed; the poster was rinsed again and then mounted to linen on a substrate of Masa using a proprietary blend of water soluble adhesives. After curing overnight the protective facing was removed and any excess gelatin was removed with a damp lint-free pad. |
