Elisha Manross ca. 1845 Steeple on Steeple with 8 day Fusee movement. Rosewood case with original dial and near perfect lower tablets. The label has darkened so much its only possible to see maker under strong light. Does anyone know why some label darkened? Is there any method to lighten labels without damaging them?
