    Default Cleaning old linen?

    I just bought two old cotton strops at a local antique mall. Each strop has two pieces of linen.

    I plan on pasting them and wonder if I should clean them first and if so, how.

    Also, one set is being held together with a safety pin. No brass or steel clamp (clip, head or whatever it's called). If anyone has an extra clamp, please pm me with a price. It is a 2 1/2" Liberty Silk Finish #21.

    The other is a Liberty on one side and a Beau Brummel on the other.

    Thanks,

    Kev
