My family recently received a handkerchief that my grandfather gave one of his sisters about 89 years ago. It is printed on with a picture and poem written on it. I was thinking about displaying it in a shadow box. None of us are for sure what the fiber is but it is shiny and thin--it doesn't feel or look like cotton and some thought maybe it was silk. Any suggestions on displaying it besides use non-acid materials, don't let the glass touch it and keep out of direct sunlight. The lady who gave it is a descendant of the one it was originally give to and thought she was helping by having it dry cleaned before giving it to us. Do I need to do anything about that before displaying it so that it will last a long time. Thanks for your advice.
