What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a heavy paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except 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. What IS paperbacking?

Prior to paperbacking, the blank top was trimmed, and there was paper loss extending into the top blue area and into the top of the woman's hat. There were some tears and paper loss around the edges of the rest of the card and many scuffs and smudges scattered throughout. Overall, the window card was in fair to good condition prior to paperbacking. The window card was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
