Stains on Stored Linens

Does anyone know how to remove an unknown type of stain. I stored a bedspread, sham and curtains that I made for my youngest child almost 18 years ago in one of those plastic bags that bedspreads come in. I took it out and where the items were folded there are yellow stains all down the fold. The bedspread has large spots. The bedspread/sham fabric is quilted cotton, I have tried soaking overnight in Biz, OxiClean, Clorox 2 and no luck. Appreciate any assistance.

I have had good luck using a much stronger solution of Oxi-Clean, than is recommended on the container, for removing stains...AND I have let the fabric sit in the solution, for as long as a week! I have never had a stain, I could not remove, using this method...
