Subject: Wax seals
I am trying to find a responsible way to stabilize wax seals on the bottom inside page of 4 page documents. (Two 18 x 14 inch sheets, folded) These documents are royal patents from the Hawaiian Kingdom and are dated circa 1850 through 1890. The documents are stored in an air-conditioned vault in a folder that is bound with a strap at the top. The seal wax is discoloring paper on the opposing page and in some cases the seal is cracking.
