We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!).

This poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. It appears to have had the following defects: the poster had a 8" clean tear that started in the bottom left of the poster and goes up through the end of the artist's name to the bottom war stamp. There was a 5" clean tear in the middle bottom of the poster going up to the "E" of "PLEDGE". There were several smaller tears and creases around the edges of the poster. The defects were well corrected during the linenbacking process and the poster now looks great! Learn More about condition grades
