Welcome to the Documents Gallery
U.S. Civil War discharge papers framed and behind glass, the family was concerned removing the document might cause irreparable damage, so they left them in place. We carefully straightened the image and removed the heavy creases and stains to preserve both its history and integrity. The faded text was rebuilt to match the original iron gall ink, and the emblematic eagle brought back to life. Wounded in action, the document reflects one soldier’s service and sacrifice in America’s most defining conflict.
This 1925 baptismal document was creased, stained, faded, and in pieces. We carefully reassembled it, sharpened the text, and restored the symbolic Danube River running through the design, preserving an important part of the newborn’s heritage.
A local newspaper reporter wrote a tribute to a local resident he met by chance. The newspaper clipping had deteriorated over time and was difficult to read. We cleaned the damage and restored the text so this man’s kindness and outlook on life could continue inspire friends and family, as it did a total stranger.
After 42 years apart, the reunion of two brothers was celebrated by the local newspaper. Over time, the clipping became fragile with stains and marks. We removed this damage, made the text legible, and straightened the image, preserving this touching homecoming.
