Abstract
Describes the development and adaptation of mounts for a collection of archaeological textiles from Red Bay, Labrador. The great variety in the size and condition of the textiles meant that a number of different mounting systems had to be used. Mounts were devised which could be adapted to suit individual objects. Methods of constructing the mounts are described and illustrated. A bibliography and table show the sources and the evolution of different types of mounts for archaeological textiles.
