As preservers of history and the objects that others leave behind, it is easy to get distracted by a desire for those objects to be “perfect.” We worry about every little tear, stain or blemish, and we want nothing more than to return objects to their "original state." However, so many times those rough spots are part of the item’s history. It is important to understand the difference between the types of condition issues on objects that cause structural issues versus those that are purely cosmetic. Knowing and identifying these differences can help when determining whether or not an item requires conservation or deciding simple factors like the best way to store or exhibit an item.
