I just aquired a complete set of old upright ivories. They are smooth, and 
free of any cracks, chips or crazing. They are, however, quite yellowed. 
I've tried steel wool & Comet with little or no result. Before I tried the 
following, i wanted to ask the list if soaking them in a solution of bleach, 
either full strength or diluted would bring back the white? Thanks in 
advance for the help!
