This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-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 2" tear in the bottom, slightly to the right of center (running from the bottom of the title into the beginning of Day's credit). Other than the above, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking, with wear on the foldlines and a few minor border defects. The poster was well backed, and displays well!
