Abstract
It is known that dried plants affect the paper of documents in contact with them during storage. The two documents that have multiple plant attachments are described: an album from the collection of V.A. Zhukovsky, 1821–1822 and 1826–1827, and a souvenir album “Fleurs et photographies de terre sante,” from the early 20th century. Model samples were made of cotton paper with the attachments of flower petals (rose, clematis, evening primrose) and tree leaves (birch, oak, maple, linden). Artificial heat-moist aging was performed. The negative effect of plant stashes on the optical, strength, and chemical properties of paper is shown. Recommendations are given for organizing the storage of documents containing dried plants.
