Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had a 2" x 1/2" area of paper loss to the left of the top crossfold, just above the girl's eye, with some tiny paper loss scattered to the left of that, including small paper loss in her eyebrow extending slightly below it to the right of the other eye. IT had some tiny tears and tiny paper loss on parts of other folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. A really talented restorer backed the poster and performed expert restoration to the above defects, especially on that top horizontal fold. The poster displays really well and I don't think virtually anyone would see the restoration it has had unless they were examining it from inches away.
