Abstract
This study concerns the analysis and treatment of a private collection of war photographs published in 1942 using a photomechanical process. It also seeks to establish a system for the safe treatment of physically damaged and moisture-sensitive large-format material. The problems were diverse, including staining, residues and structural deformation, and there was evidence that the paper surface was sensitive to any form of moisture. The paper supports provided some stability, enabling essential technical analysis and remedial conservation treatment to be carried out.
