  Hello , I don't know if you are the people to direct this question to, =
but hopefully you can steer me in the right direction.=20


  Our archives, Royal Jubilee Hospital School of Nursing, is in =
possession of a commerative invitation / program printed on silk. It is =
approximately 7 x 10". This invitation was produced on the occasion of =
the laying of the original cornerstone of the Provincial Royal Jubilee =
Hospital in 1858, so it is a precious acquisition.  It is printed on =
both sides . Currently we have it between two pieces of Mylar and it is =
stored flat . A new hospital tower is being constructed and it has been =
requested that this invitation be put on display for the occasion of the =
cornerstone laying. =20


  The question is: can it be safely mounted between two pieces of glass =
and displayed upright in order for both sides to be visible? Kind of =
framed like a photograph?=20


  If so, is there a special method, kind of glass, sealing, air space - =
should it be done as a temporary measure for the 1 day occasion or could =
it be permanently  preserved in this manner and available for other =
viewing, but generally stored in flat newspaper box? =20


  We are rather in a hurry as the new cornerstone ceremony takes place =
on April 9 and this request just came to us Tuesday March 24. Any help =
would be gratefully appreciated.=20


  Please feel free to pass this on to any person you feel would be able =
to advise us.=20
  Thanks,=20
