Artist: Roger Kastel Important Added Info: Note that this poster is commonly referred to as the "Gone With the Wind" style (because Harrison Ford is holding Carrie Fisher in his arms similar to how Clark Gable held Vivien Leigh in "Gone With the Wind"!). The poster was issued in an NSS style and in a "studio" style (which lacks NSS information), and each style turns up around the same amount of times. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster was used and displayed, and in addition to acquiring creases, tears, and surface paper loss on parts of several folds, it also faded noticeably while it was displayed. It also had pinholes, tears, and some paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in fair condition prior to linenbacking. Given the poster's major defects, the restorer did a pretty good job with it, but they did not address the fading issue. If you don't know about the fading, it displays fairly well, although you can clearly see signs of the restoration that was performed. Please do not bid on this poster unless you have read the above and have looked at our super-sized image. Note that the restorer left a tiny bit of excess linen around all four sides of the poster (they left a small border in order to protect the poster from handling damage, but they did not leave a larger border, to allow it to more easily fit in a frame).
