Great!, Thanks for sharing that story. Impressive job, Did they give any clues how they did it ?
Perhaps a drymount press with the absolutely correct amount of moisture and heat ...wow, surprising

so no stamp or anything to indicate that it's been restored? there was talk about them looking into doing that years back.

there was a process thread or how to (either here or on their web site).
wet print on glass & treat with a proprietary solution that strengthens the paper. it's some sort of gelatin or starch ...idk
downside is print cant really be rolled again (or shouldn't at the very least) and has to ship flat.

The paper does feel a little different and I do remember something about gelatin when I had Rocka Rolla done.
Nothing to indicate it was restored.
Its like it was starched and ironed by the hand of God.

Looks great and totally worth it. Thanks for the thread. Pretty impressive what they can do.
P. S. I am fortunate to have never seen a tube drymounted up this badly yet. What the drymount, really?

Thanks for the no rolling advice. Have one of you done so and damaged a print?

I don't have personal experience but do recall an incident that played out here or on fb where someone was sold a high value Stout that had been restored. The seller did not disclose the restoration to the buyer and the print arrived damaged from rolling it after it had been restored. It caused the ink to crinkle on the surface of the print or something like that IIRC.

Ask PM about it. That's why they shipped it back flat instead of in a tube.
