If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this special one-sheet poster (which shows portraits from the Albert Davies collection of the many great actors who had appeared in this classic play over the years, including Mary Pickford and Pearl White, and better yet, it gives all of their names along with a description of the character they played and when) likely originally measured 28" x 42", with very large blank borders. At some point, someone trimmed away most of the borders and it now measures 24 1/4" x 38" [62 x 97 cm], but it is very likely that only blank white paper was affected. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The blank borders of the poster were partially trimmed (see above). There were two small stains in the left and right background areas, but otherwise, the poster was in nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
