Physical characteristics and technical requirements
The pledge card has been crudely mounted onto a wooden support which may originally have been a frame backing. The wooden support has split and cracked along its entire length. There is also significant dust and dirt accumulations to the certificate and backing-support. Very careful manual handling is required.
