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 thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we think it would have a strong chance of lessening its condition, so we will only send it in a large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).

It had some pinholes around the edges and some scattered in the image. It had staining scattered throughout, including in the girl's face and body. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to paperbacking. Given the poster's significant defects, the restorer did a really nice job, because it displays pretty well from a reasonable viewing distance, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
