Hi Kit,

You are very welcome. In the context of the case, one might not even need a photo in the frame. From what I can see silver leaf will look better in your case then such warm gold. Looking forward to seeing the result.

Best wishes,

                 Eric

It is absolutely real, pity is faded but genuine it is!

One thing you might want to consider is where you put it as you'll want to protect this from UV light, etc. as you really don't want this to fade further. One option might be to take it out of the frame so it is kept in the dark although many like to display their items proudly.

Hi DP,

Thanks for your suggestion. If I keep the signature in showcase with normal fluorescent light inside the room, do you think this light may cause the fading problem?

Use UV glass and place in relative shadow. Further degradation caused by the paper itself. Perhaps buffered/neutral atmosphere.

You're welcome. Anything that I have with lighter signatures which I try to avoid, I keep covered and only bring them out to look at, and put them back right away. Any autographs I bought that were already framed I generally remove them from the frame or put them away in their frame.
