Original - 1876 membership certificate for the Independent Order of B'nai B'rith, the oldest Jewish service organisation in the world.
Reason
While I disagreed with Durova's colour choices, I think the underlying work has merit. Luckily, Durova believes in making her work accessible to other restorationists, thus I was able to go to a partially-finished restoration, and rework from there. I believe this is a more accurate colour scheme - brown ink was a common ink colour, for instance, squid ink or sepia, so there's no reason to presume brown is wrong - and I also left in some clear signs of paper grain, which I think makes it look better.
