Hi!
I've just bought the Borussia Mönchengladbach v Aberdeen UEFA Cup programme from 72-3. It has punch holes, which I hate but it is so rare that I'm not too worried. But it also has the ticket for the game stuck in firmly to the inside cover over an advert. Does anyone know how I might remove the ticket without damaging the programme,as I collect Dons' tickets too, and the ticket alone is worth over £50? Is there anyone who could do it for me?

Unless you are planning to resell either the ticket or the programme, which I am sure you aren't, what is the problem with leaving it where it is?

The programme and ticket are both integral items of memorabilia for a specific game and as it on the inside (as opposed to stuck on the front cover) and as it covers an advert, I would be tempted to leave alone.

If you decide to go ahead and remove it there are expert programme restorers out there who can do magic with restoration, they will even sort out the punch holes for you.

I am sure someone on this forum will recommend a name or two.

Not ideal, but as they are both rare items would be inclined to leave as they are to prevent further damage. The main thing you have them in your collection, and it is only an advert that is obscured.

send me a PM and i will give you information on a proven chemical product from the manufacturers of how to remove such items without any issues on damges-been using it for years and on programmes myself with values in the hudreds. I once purchased a whole set of 1946-7 Manchester United Central league single sheet programmes at auction where the previous person had stuck them one on top of the other[imbecile] took me around one hour to apply the fluid and gently remove each sheet, yes a handfull were stubborn for sure and there was some paper loss, but within an hour or so after that all the sheets had dried and not crinkled and you would never have known what had happened apart from those odd stubborn ones.
