Just to alert people. Cool as vintage wallpaper may look, it poses a potential health hazard. Many of the dyes used in old wallpaper contained lead and as
the paper deteriorates it will release particles. Not as big a deal in a small framed square as if you actually tried papering a room with it, but still a concern to watch out for.

Did any else catch the other current on Letterman last night? Martha Stewart teaching Borat to change bed linens?

Martha actually stayed cool while disavowing interest in three-ways and being hitched to a plow....up until the point where Sasha / Borat removed his underpants.

Not that's entertainment.
