<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Yesterday I was over at a cousin home. He had two
certificates that were dated 1928 and 1932. Over the years
these certificates had been folded and parts have been torn and
scotch tape applied to the back of these certificates. They
are very beautiful color certificates. The size of
both certificates is approximately 9 inches by 12 inches. I
have a copy of both certificate if anyone would like to see
them. The question is besides putting them in a picture
frame what other way could one preserved them from further
damage.</DIV>
