Honestly?
I haven't had the time - plus - they have just been exposed to the environ, so I wanted to place them back into storage, straight-away (after) the pic's were taken..

The extent of water damage done to the second signatures...At the time, I tried to get this repaired - however - it may not be possible (or could be) too extensive of a cost/repair in (using today's means)
I just wanted to post this, to show that mistakes are made, thus the reason, I always rotate my stock of figures/collectives, ever since.
Deth, I did a very fast google search on "paper conservation" (I only looked at the first page).
There are quit a number of paper conservators listed, from university labs to private individuals.
Some will give an estimate from an e-mailed scan or digital picture (front and back).
Also, you might want to ask any local museums or art galleries for recommendations.
I also found this article about Aitchison and Watters, conservators in Los Angeles, California.
A good conservator could make those two sheets look almost new.If you do get them conserved, and want to display them, use archival materials and UV proof glass in any frame.

~ THANKS SIR!
I will look into it, but, the (restoration) will have to wait somewhat, as I only have a few more months to go before final completion on a - 'personal responsibility' - that shall be completed.

I will agree with you (and no gig on Mascarpone) for wanting it - however - that's NOT including the shipping (yet) which can run from $6.40 - $17.80 (depending on what's chosen)
They're always at the bottom of my list, when it comes to purchasing (anything) anime related - (unless) - I have no actual choice or its an exclusive (ONLY TO) them, as was the case with SD HQ...
But, here's a link to a - larger image - just clean it up, brighten it up and print it out, making a worthy poster of it, a clock face, or also a wall scroll...
Or just wait a bit and it may come up somewhere else at a - 'more attractive' - price.

I like that idea. Saved.

Here's a cheaper price. Though it's sold out.
And it's still pretty expensive.

Just to be (clear)...
I am not trying to dissuade (anyone) from purchasing from there or anywhere else in all honesty...
They can do what they wish, its a choice after all..
I just like to save, be more keen with my cash, though I have plenty to go around, I tend to take my time, and evaluating what I am going to purchase. - its a long process actually.
However...
Don't get me wrong, I HAVE spent thousands on stuff... just ask - Kusingia and KanIka - as they and I have spent plenty, and discussing this very fact.
I also like to create some items as well, or commission an artist to create it, this way I have something unique - though - it may not be an actual item from a particular company...

Don't worry Deth. I already downloaded the image you posted. So no worries.

I'm glad you like the idea and that it - 'inspired you' - that was my purpose...
Whichever route you take, just keep us informed, and show us some pics...

Yes. It's pretty standard for me to search the web for an item to check all the different prices. If I hear just the slightest rumor about something getting cheaper in the coming 'weeks', I'll wait and see. But isn't this pretty normal for everyone?

could be...
However, I have seen some (and been with) - "compulsive buyers" - who rather buy when its straight-away available and as soon as its comes out... regardless...
They either have the money (to burn), have burning pockets, or ..... just can't seem to comprehend that it will be found at a cheaper price.
Just my personal experience...
