Another thing on the dial is that you can repair small tears in the foil. The foil is stamped after it's put onto the cardboard. So the cardboard has the wavy patterns in it too. You can find gold foil at the hobby shop. Carefully slip it under the edges of the tear. Use a small roller to press the new foil into the pattern in the cardboard. Make a nice repair as long as there is no print involved.
I would have repaired in this fashion but the cardboard had gotten wet and was mess up.

Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
