What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster had tiny paper loss at just a few crossfolds and a very few creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some foldlines. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, but in a very sad misfortune, the poster became water stained down the right side in an uneven way ranging from 1" at the least to 3" at the most. This discolored the excess linen and the edge of the poster in those areas, and also caused it to ripple (see our image). In addition, someone cut off a small piece of the excess linen from the right of the bottom border. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its very major defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored!
