2020 1971   YP-1900 Stanford, Bonnie B Tulsa OK Old back

We have just acquired Homer's #2020 from our aunt Bonnie Stanford, formerly of Tulsa OK.

It has not been played much, but seems to be in excellent condition despite having been stored in its original box and quilted cover since 1971.

We live in New Mexico, and are hoping it will survive our low humidity... any suggestions?

Thanks,

Bunny Bowen
