Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this one-sheet, and that was 20 years ago! Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. What IS paperbacking?

Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds, with some tiny tears in the top and bottom quarters of the vertical fold, and a lesser amount of wear on the other folds. It had some tiny dot stains in Hopkins' shoulder and a tiny bit of paper loss in her forehead. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
