Need help..

Hope someone on here can help me..
Is anybody on here able to do restoration on a papier mâché puppets head or put me into contact with somebody who can.
It's a very sentimental piece, an original little Frank head made by the late great Frank sidebottom. People tell me it should be easy to do, but to afraid in case I ruin it..

If anybody is interested and would like to see what needs doing here's my email address, and I'll send you some pictures..

Hope someone can help, look forward to hearing from you.
Regards
Stephen

Re: Need help..

This must be Frank Sidebottom, who died on June 21 2010 aged 54 and was the stage name of Chris Sievey, who created the large, round puppet heads from papier mâché.
It should be fairly easy to repair, depending on the amount of damage.  I guess from your email that you are in the UK.  Let us know whereabouts and we can see if there is one of our experienced friends within reaching distance.
