After purchase this paper was stored in an unlit, smoke-free, climate controlled environment. It was not sealed up and gases generated by the natural aging of newspaper stock were allowed to dissipate. That said, this paper is 31 years old. It has aged and it has yellowed some. The paper is not brittle and does not require special care when handling but highly recommend after reading and appreciating that successful buyer takes steps to stabilize it with acid free cardboard stock if stored or backing for framing. Seller does not recommend storing in a sealed plastic container.
Seller is original owner. I am selling this for the benefit of fans of SRV, I have copies saved for self and family. I was at the funeral. It was a record setting day for heat that summer. Jackson Brown, Bonnie Raitt, and Stevie Wonder sang Amazing Grace acapella. Nile Rogers debuted the collaborative song by Stevie and Jimmie called Tick Tock. And I still miss Stevie.
