Artist: Luigi Martinati Important Added Info: Note that this Italian one-panel measures 39" x 55". Condition: very good. The poster had a quarter-sized area of paper loss at the middle crossfold and tiny paper loss at the other crossfolds. There were creases and some tiny tears across the middle foldline and down the top half of the vertical foldline and a lesser amount on the other foldlines. The poster had darkened some along the foldlines and darkened unevenly around the edges of the poster. At some point after the poster was linenbacked, it was roughly handled and it received a 3" crease in the middle of the right border of the poster (a small part in the solid black and the rest in the solid grey area). Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but the restorer did not address the darkening in the poster.
