Featured Celluloid disease Auguste Bonaz decorative haircomb.

Yes I have read it, thank you. That seems to be the general consensus.

Thank you. I guess it is one of those collector's problems. There are always sensitive materials, whatever you collect.
I thought I only had antique black lace to worry about (iron oxide eating away the thread), now celluloid is added to the list. My black lace fans are in very good condition though, and I hope they stay that way. They get tlc, just like my celluloid items.

 

The Celluloid Collectibles book seems to be readily available for purchase online, for reasonable prices. I see it on Amazon, AbeBooks, and eBay. (All of these are the American sites). I hope that somebody here has it, but just thought I'd mention it in case you wanted to order it.

 

Thanks Fig. I don't know if my humble collection of decorative combs and just two bangles is enough to add yet another book to the piles that don't fit in my bookcases. That's why I was hoping someone has it.
