Clive 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 a blank top which was neatly trimmed off (typical of many Belgian posters of this time period). It had been folded across the middle and there are creases along that foldline. There were some water stains in the bottom 2" of the right of the poster extending into the bottom of the image background. There were some creases and tears at the left and right ends of the foldline and pinholes in the corners. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the restorer simply backed it "as is" (and the defects described above are not very noticeable or distracting). Learn More about condition grades
