Tea Stained Papers and De-acidifying Bath; includes Full Deck Challenge 3 cards

Bathing the deck of played cards from The Sands Las Vegas.

I give tea-dyed papers a bath in baking soda in water to neutralize the tannic acid of the tea. Then I dry them in the sun.

First, I wait for a dry sunny day with no wind, when I can tend to them all day.

That's what I'm doing out front every couple of months or so.

One more Splat Book is done, washed, and dried.

James Frost has one.
