<p>[QUOTE="statcat, post: 1107204, member: 5954"]Can anyone tell me what this possibly is? Took it to a paper expert years ago who didn't want to be bothered with it at first but then after viewing it he didn't want to touch it with bare hands and said that I should further research it. He described it as "vegetal paper" if I remember right. I asked a book expert about it recently and emailed some photos but he immediately dismissed it as a common facsimile. I haven't been able to find another like it online. I took the photos under two different lighting conditions.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]210924[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]210925[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]210926[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]210927[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
