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 was never folded. There were a few faint smudges near the right middle of the poster and some creases and tiny tears in the bottom border and the bottom of the right border. None of the above are very noticeable, and otherwise, the poster was in quite nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and looks great! Learn More about condition grades
