You can try all the tricks/methods including ventilation,ozone as
already suggested,baking soda, but in the end some odor will remain as
porous paper soaks smoke up. Sorry..

Bestine will remove tape/residue , it will not remove tape stains.
That is restoration / bleaching territory.

I cannot and will not accept responsibility for any issues that come
from taking my advice but I do recall that in the old days, this
question of removing tape was almost always answered with Bestine.
That questiuon and what kind oif tape was safe to iuse on posters came
up all the time, in my memory. I have never used the product but I
can't forget it.
All the best,

An ozone generator should solve your problem. The cheapest are $30 or
something on Amazon.

*Betreff: *[MOPO] Poster Smoke Damage
I received (ebay transaction that had 9 watchers) a quality title
1940s half sheet (valued at about 225.00) that reeks of smoke. From
the moment I brought the package into my house, the smoke was obvious,
and when I opened the envelope, the smoke smell was horrendous. The
seller is agreeable to accept the return.
Before I return it, is there any way to remove the smell. I tried
leaving it in front of an air conditioning vent, but it only made the
room smell. It still smells.
Comments?
_Another question:_ Is there a way to remove the yellow/gold stain
left by old fashion scotch tape on inserts/half sheets? (The tape is
long gone.)
Thank you
Michael
