Abstract
The full conservation treatment performed on a large
19th-century Canadian photograph album at the National Archives
of Canada is outlined in detail. The Jacobs Album, considered to
be one of the most valuable in the collection, was completely
taken apart. All 913 photographs were lined and remounted onto
new pages, and new bindings were constructed. The original pages
and binding jackets were treated and stored separately. Also
outlined are the treatment options presented prior to treatment
and the decision-making process that resulted in this treatment.
