What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. It appears that the poster had light staining, small tears, and tiny paper loss on almost all the folds, with some in the non-fold areas. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. After the poster was backed, it was slightly roughly handled, and there is now a small tear slightly below the top center crossfold that is slightly "lifting" from the linen. Please bear all of the above in mind and look at our super-sized image before bidding on this very rare poster.
