Warren Miller's Classy Rabbits

A pair of romantically-inclined rabbits with evidently refined palates are the subject of a 1981 New Yorker cartoon by Warren Miller. The original artwork shows signs of matte burn at the edges from an acidic mount, and there seems to be significant yellowing from light exposure as well. All works on paper should be stored and framed in a manner that will protect them from damage resulting from sunlight and contact with acidic paper. Cutting corners on framing costs can permanently damage irreplaceable artwork down the road. The framer's responsibility is not merely to display artwork to its fullest advantage, but to preserve it for future generations.
