Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had an extra vertical foldline 2" to the right of the regular vertical foldline, and it had several areas of paper loss and tears scattered down the center of the poster between the two foldlines, and also along the top and bottom horizontal folds. There were some long tears in the top left of the poster. There were pinholes, creases, scuffs, and some surface paper loss and regular paper loss around the edges of the poster and many scuffs scattered throughout the poster. Overall, the poster was in fair condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed given its many defects, but there are a few scuffs and scattered tiny areas of surface paper loss that were either not addressed, or occurred after the poster was backed, and you can clearly see the above defects and the restoration of the above defects from close up, so please do not bid on this poster until you have carefully read the above and also looked closely at our super-sized image.
