I have a very old flag approx 13X17 which I need to mount in order to include into a shallow shadow box. It's an old Chris Craft flag from the 1940's and is so threadbare and torn in various places that you can barely breath on it without it fluttering away. This has been an on-going project for almost a year and the Mahogany striped moulding from Garret is now available and I can proceed.
Some time ago I posted and it was suggested that I sew the flag onto a linen backing, however, due to the condition of the flag, I don't think sewing is very viable solution.
I would like to mount it onto a near white surface in order to keep this stained fabric as bright as possible.
- Frank's Fabric Adhesive on rag white board and dry mount?
- Dry Mount with extra white dry mount tissue I have in stock?
- Any other suggestions???
Good display is of more importance to the client than preservation or reversability.
Thanks.
