Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some pretty minor fold wear. There were some tears and smudges around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but sadly, after it was backed, it was mailed in a strong tube, but the Post Office managed to completely smash the left side of the tube, which resulted in many strong creases down the left edge of the image, and some surface paper loss within the left of the oval of the image, as seen in our photo. We would think that this can only be restored by re-mounting the poster, so bear that expense in mind (or live with the significant defects) before placing a bid on this poster!
