Hi all,  This is probably not news to anyone, but when a box is too far
gone, I always try and save the labels (including the signature label
on the top of many Duo-Art boxes).

I cut out the portions of the box containing the labels, drop them in
a small bowl of warm water to soften the glue, and let the labels float
off, or remove them carefully with a scalpel or X-acto knife.  Then
I place them on a plate or something the label won't stick to.  Don't
let them dry completely without flipping a couple of times to prevent
sticking.

After drying the label is ready to be placed on a new box, or, if there
is still enough adhesive on the original, place it on the new box when
still slightly wet,

Best wishes to all, and thanks to John Phillips for his excellent
treatise on box restoration.
