The client wished to preserve this original newspaper dating back to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963. The first layer of protection is a museum grade UV glass. The Carabotts created a shallow tray to hold it in place, which is gently pressed against the mount board. They used museum grade cotton core mounts to not risk any acidic materials bleeding into the paper. As Malta is humid in winter, a conservation grade foam core was used as the final layer of protection.
