What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had darkened. It had small tears and tiny paper loss on parts of some folds, with some paper loss in the right of Cantinflas' mouth. It had pinholes and paper loss around the edges, and some writing on the back that slightly bled through to the front in the lower center of the red background. Overall, the poster was in 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.
