Today I recived a small parcel from Detlev Niemann. It included among other items a Bulgarian "Erinnerungs-medaille zum weltkrieg 1915-1918" plus the documents for the medal.
Well, now to the problem - I opend the paperbag where Detlev have placed the medal. It was this Jiffybag type of thing, with some kind of glue so that you can close it, open it and close it again - I think you know what I mean.
After looking at the medal for a while, I reach for the documents to have a closer look. Then I placed them on my desk again...and ofcourse I put one of them straight on the glue on the Jiffybag
So, now the bag is stuck on the document and I can´t remove it without causing damage to the urkunde.
I took a scissor and carefully removed most of the bag - but still ends up with a small piece of paper glued to the doc.
I was thinking about holding it over the steam of boiling water, but are seriously afraid that it will damage the doc. and the glue is not the kind found on letters etc.
Yes, I know I´m stupid but I would really need some
