What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had a large T-shaped tear in the lower right. It was almost completely in the white background area, except that it entered the back of the female figure and the logo at bottom right. It also had scuffs and creases in the bottom left border. The poster had a few tears in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster).
