If anyone has definitive proof that Kulz created this artwork, please e-mail us.

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had a few tiny bits of paper loss on small parts of some folds. It had some tiny bits of paper loss scattered in parts of the edges of the blank borders, with darkening in the extreme left edge of the left blank border. It had some tiny pinholes around the edges. Overall, the poster was in 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. Because the defects are primarily in the outer edges of the blank borders, they certainly will not show when the poster is framed.
