The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny bits of paper loss scattered in the bottom fold, with very little wear on the other folds. It had pinholes in the corners. 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.
