Anyone had a print professionally restored?, by Andy'77 on Feb 13, 2008 11:55:03 GMT 1, I'm looking to get a print straightened out that I've recently received. It's got about 5 or 6 creases in the print (all but one are not on a printed area), and only a couple are bad.
Has anyone any experience with getting creases removed professionally, especially in the Yorkshire area.
Also can they get a print looking as good as new if it's only creases?
When it's framed, the majority would be hidden but I'd like to get it in a prettier state prior to framing if possible.
Is it expensive?

I have no idea about this but it would be really cool to see some pictures of the process. I would like to see the print before and after etc. Good luck.

www.icon.org.uk/
You should be able to find some one in your area, you'll probably have to show them the print before they can give you a price.
PS - if its a print then select "contemporary art on paper".
