Hi Charlie,

This is the cheapest type I could source in the UK... the Chinese supermarket variety... I have had a quick look on Google and there are conservation companies who sell their variety. I thought it was all the same product?

Well Dr. J convinced me to do a few of mine that I've been wanting to do...  This one turned out great!  Rich (http://movieposterbid.com/) scored me this Sabrina US OS full of acid and tanning - Thanks guy! But behind all of it was one of the best preserved copies I've seen!

After an intense session including two deacidification and bleach treatments, I finally got the colors to pop!  I am not sure what happened but the bleach just stopped bleaching, so I had to neutralize it and deacidify it again and then the second bleach treatment worked...  In the after photo there are no paper repairs at all and only minor touch ups on the "R" in SABRINA and at the top crossfold...  I almost let it sit European style it was so nice.  I took a razor to scrape away some of the staining but that is it.  If anyone has ever held this poster in there hands, un-restored, the paper is terrible - thin and brittle.  It had to be done!

Lebanese Dirty Harry with Original linenbacking (no paper - assumed to provide strength)

Two videos showing how I soaked and removed the linen backing (first go to boot!)

that looks great Charlie, but I knew it would because I knew Sabrina was structurally sound and there was obviously no paper loss.

congrats buddy

Don't read that wrong Rich (no sarcasm intended in my previous post). I am really thankful that you helped me out! You said it would turn out great, and it did...
