[QUOTE="Mill Cove Treasures, post: 1222236, member: 60"]Peroxide will damage the paper. You won't see it right away but it will deteriorate. There are so many variables to consider before you do anything to paper. Most important,is knowing what kind of ink was used. There is a company called Talas, they sell professional restoration products. They might be able to suggest which product would be best. A day in the sun will kill off mold on the pieces that aren't already heavily foxed but wait for warmer weather. One day on each side should do it. Here is a link to Talas.
