    How to conserve paper labels on a leather gun case ?

    I have a new project leather gun case to restore for my Greener double rifle.

    I intend gluing down the loose edges of the remaining labels and then want to seal them to stabilize them

    Does anyone have actual experience conserving anything like these labels ?

    There are quite a few different NZ and offshore labels which are quite legible.
    And an owners name in gold across its top

    The inside is a complete refit because of moth eaten damage

    It's a medium term project, so I will take the time to do it properly.
    Case exterior is almost perfect
