Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy is used to detect paramagnetic impurities in differently degraded antique sheets of unprinted paper. Impurities consist primarily of transition metal ions (Fe 3+ , Mn 2+ , Cu 2+ ) present in different environments and symmetries. Organic radicals, common in modern, wood pulp paper, are absent in these antique samples made from rags. Fe 3+ is the largest impurity (from 300 to 700 ppm). Mn 2+ is also present but its concentration does not exceed 50ppm. Cu 2+ has been detected in about one‐third of the samples. Coupled with nuclear magnetic resonance data, these results describe degradation as an hydrolytic process leading to a net increase of amorphous cellulose and to a decrease of bound water. Copper and rhombic iron appear to act as efficient degradation catalysts, whereas the presence of octahedral iron is almost irrelevant
