From our Conservator Rejean Demers: "The spiders were released from the Fairey Firefly,cat no. 1993.0196 , while being transported overseas in a RCAF Hercules while a Conservator was on-board. Treatment had to wait until he climbed down off the wall." 😆😮😬
#AskAConservator why is 🚭smoking🚭bad? In addition to the adverse health☠️effects, it causes staining that lasts for decades! Check out these before/after photos of removing🟡yellow🟡nicotine🚬stains from a ca. 1968 Zenith television📺set. @SciTechMuseum @IngeniumCa @PHAC_GC
Joyeux 50e🎂anniversaire🎂à nos amis à l'Institut canadien de conservation!

Happy birthday CCI!🎉🙂 @SciTechPreserv is proud to be your neighbor just down the road in Ottawa. We have been fortunate to work jointly on cool projects, such as analyzing this degraded foam to support the reproduction work on the electronic Sackbut!

Haha, it's both! I'm doing a inspection in our cold vault. It's where we store our colour photographic prints, colour negatives and deteriorated diacetate negatives. We keep it at a chilly -18°C (± 2°C) and 30% relative humidity (± 5%).
