THE PHANTOM HAPPINESS

	U.S. ONE SHEET, LUBIN, OTIS LITHO POSTER WAS RECEIVED FOLDED ON TATTERED LINEN AND WITH AREAS OF EXTREME LOSS AND DEGRADATION. TAPE WAS PRESENT ON ALL SIDES, FRONT AND BACK.
	POSTER WAS SOAKED WITH WATER AND LINEN WAS REMOVED. PAPER BECAME VERY SOFT AND DIFFICULT TO MANIPULATE. TAPE ADHESIVE DID NOT RELEASE IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME AND WAS REMOVED USING A SCALPEL AND A TEFLON TOOL. POSTER WAS MOUNTED TO LINEN IN ORDER TO PROVIDE GREATER STABILITY.
