Conservation Clear glass
The jersey is held in place by a rag board cutout slide inside. I tried something new with the support board. I made it in three pieces. The main body is square and the arm supports were acid-free taped to the main body, so the arms could be folded in, and then opened up once it was fitted into the jersey. It worked pretty well. A couple of stitches were used on the back of the jersey to hold the extra material in place. The jersey was then held to the mounting board by pulling material of the jersey back at the collar and sleeve ends and stainLess stapling it through the linen mount board.
Approximate build time: 3hrs
Retail price: $550
