That is a great find!!! I would put it into a plastic sleeve to prevent any further ware. Very cool and thanks for sharing.
The odd part is the collection contains a number of albums and this is the only one like this. Some have toning but nothing like this. Sadly...
In a dresser drawer I would also be concerned about vapors from laundry detergant, fabric softner, wood varnish, if there is plywood - glue and...

I am sorry, I miss understood what you meant - you are right but that's not the biggest issue with the set and you would have to zoom into the...
