[BCMA] FW: very small museum questions

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hi,
I may be able to help you. I have  archival quality paper tape and could send some to you.
It would help if you could send a photo and the book size. 
Feel free to email me directly: pepper at vip.net
 Best,
Gayle Cornish
