Cobb, Harold Vermilyea, Charles Meredith, and Philip Ahn NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some very minor defects that were not completely restored, and are slightly noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "Pre-Restoration Defects & Quality of Restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had some extra creases along the foldlines and some staple holes, creases, smudges, and a few tiny tears around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the restorer pretty much just backed it as is, leaving the above defects as is (and they are truly not very distracting at all). Learn More about condition grades
