Hello, Listserv,

 

Yesterday a trophy arrived from a donor that had been badly packaged, and sadly, broken.  The trophy dates to 1950 and was custom-made by combing several common trophy elements.  The figures and design elements are pot metal on a wood base.  One of the figures broke where it was adhered to the base and should be straightforward to fix, but two of the design elements broke at weak points and might be a bit problematic.  We would really like to get it fixed.  Can anyone recommend a conservator, hopefully close to Indiana, would could do so?

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
