Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward), and it will likely need to be sent in a 6" tube, because rolling it more tightly might damage the poster.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had some creases around the edges, with a 1 1/2" tear in the bottom border. It had many very faint brown stains scattered in the background areas. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Also, after it was backed, it was roughly handled, and someone lightly folded the poster down the middle (both the poster and the backing), and they also caused some creases in the top and bottom of the poster and the backing.
