Note that this movie is very highly regarded by almost all critics and those who have seen it, but it does not have the "following" that many other classic British films of this time period have, and that is unfortunate, because it is well worth seeing!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny paper loss on parts of some folds. It had paper loss in the bottom right corner, very slightly entering the background. Overall, the poster was in very 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. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame. Also note that the back of the poster was glued to a cardboard matting on the back of each border. Someone removed it from the backing, but there are paper remnants on the back of each border. Someone could easily carefully remove it, but it is solely on the back of the linen and does not affect the front of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
