After removing the map from the frame and detaching it from the mounting board the map was carefully cleaned from any traces of broken glass and deacidified to prevent further deterioration that occurs from exposure to chemicals. The tears were carefully repaired and filled in with a pH neutral compound and all signs of damage were eliminated with outmost care. After the<a href="document_restoration.html" target="_top" title="restoration of map"> restoration of map</a> was completed, only those who knew the original location of the damaged spots could identify the repair. To complete the presentation, the map was placed on museum quality mounting board and covered with custom cut mat. Careful examination of this rare map of London helped to settle one of the longest standing historical debates. It does appear that indeed no public loo existed on either side of Thames at that time. Some say that there are still too few of them today. <br> In addition to consumer services <strong>Preserve Your Past</strong> offers companies, museums, galleries and individual collectors an opportunity to obtain restoration, <a href="fine_art_reproduction.html" target="_top">fine art replication</a> and <a href="digital_archiving.html" target="_top">archiving services</a> of the highest quality available in the industry. <p><a href="javascript:openView('samples/sample_37.html')"><img src="thumbs/samples_37.jpg" width="317" height="150" border="0" align="right"></a>A 19th century photograph of the famous New York Plaza hotel required careful cleaning and retouching of some missing parts of the building and it's surrounding. After the retouching was complete, light colorization was applied to the photograph to eliminate the vast stark area of the sky. The subtle tones of blue and yellow gave the final image a delicate vintage appeal. <p>Our technical expertise, knowledge and understanding of vintage printing and photographic processes combined with our familiarity with historical periods make each of our projects both technically and historically accurate. Our long time association with many of the historians and researchers allows us to verify, match and recreate any details of historical significance. <p><a href="javascript:openView('samples/sample_34.html')"><img src="thumbs/samples_34.jpg" width="317" height="150" border="0" align="left"></a>Particular care was given in making a presentation copy of this exceptionally rare autographed photo of World War II heroes, General McArthur and General Eisenhower.. After removing all signs of staining and filling in the missing areas, special attention was given to the reproduction of detail and color of the signatures. The bottom border's texture and color were extended around the photo to recreate the original size of the print. The final print was made on high quality fine art ink jet paper and a number of test prints were made to match the color of the duplicate to that of the original photograph. Fine art inkjet photo paper was used for the final presentation.</td> </tr> </table></td> <td bgcolor="#E1D3B7"><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="20" height="20" border="0"></td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#B6A785"><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="260" height="20" border="0"></td> <td bgcolor="#E1D3B7"><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="20" height="20" border="0"></td> <td bgcolor="#E1D3B7"><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="480" height="20" border="0"></td> <td bgcolor="#E1D3B7"><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="20" height="20" border="0"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="260" height="10" border="0"></td> <td><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="20" height="10" border="0"></td> <td><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="480" height="10" border="0"></td> <td><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="20" height="10" border="0"></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="4"><table width="770" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="385" height="1" border="0"></td> <td><img src="site_img/1x1_xxxxxx.gif" width="385" height="1" border="0"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span class="copyright">© 2002-08 Preserve Your Past™  LLC</span>  <span class="copyright">|</span>  <a href="privacy_terms_of_use.html" target="_top" class="copyright">Terms of Use</a></td> <td align="right"><span class="copyright">Phone: <a href="#" class="copyright">800-958-7259</a>  <span class="copyright">|</span>  E-mail: </span> <script language=javascript>  </script></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
