Artist: Ray Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: very good. The poster was folded across the middle, and there were creases and scuffs in the 1/2" above that fold. There were two scuff marks in the top left at the beginning of the title. There were creases, smudges, and small tears around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer paperbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not at all distracting (and any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster). Note that the poster had a tax stamp in the top play date area, and that the restorer left it on the poster (most people prefer to have these tax stamps remain on the poster, because they are historically interesting, and they prove that the poster is original).
