Unfortunately my Esther Williams 1SH (http://bit.ly/Mj1SLa) required a large amount of work to restore her and there was some discussion on whether she could survive well enough to do a good enough job on her so not so sure it is worth it and have left it for now. However, I have just got back images on two restoration jobs just completed.

Snow White (R58) had paper loss, tears and holes and a large(ish) stain bottom right corner...

Lolita (1962) had very severe foxing, stains and a few holes/paper loss.

Thank-you Dario!

Awesome David!

Hmmm, hasn't called me Daddy in quite a few years...

you know I thought I was spelling it incorrectly, so I checked Google and the first page of results all had it spelled the same way

I'm getting a bunch of stuff restored etc and just got an update from Dario (http://www.vintagemovieart.ca/) - I think I'll keep him on...

Anyway here's one that I am particularly fond of for some reason, it's going on the wall when it gets here:

Very nice, David. When is this poster from? The MGM logo makes me think the 1970s/ early 80s?

What a difference in paper color too! Seems like it had tanned quite a bit over the years.

It looks wonderful!  thumbup

Thanks, a bleach bath does wonder for the skin.  :D The poster is from 1967, couldn't answer the question about the logo.

And here's another destined for the wall

Marilyn's bath did wonders for her, too. It even removed her wrinkles, which we all know, she would have loved and approved of.

Another winner, David.  clap
