Is that referring to mine, or the ones you just posted?

The ones I’ve just posted.

Some more authentic 63 autographs but later on in July and on wards look at the evolution, them that I posted earlier were the only ones from June or pre.

Thanks, so would you recommend that I move ahead with a restoration/conservation? It would cost $500-1000 USD.

I wouldn’t have anything restored it is what it is.

I totally agree. Tape marks and stains are part of an item's history, like the patina on vintage wooden furniture and bronzes. Perhaps very light restoration (e.g. flattening out creases or removing excess surface dirt) is OK but otherwise I would only restore where it is necessary to protect the item (e.g, removing tape or glue on the reverse that might cause staining to the front). You also have to think about the market value of an item when considering whether, and to what extent, to restore.
