What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had six unevenly spaced horizontal foldlines with creases, scuffs, and fine surface paper loss on parts of those folds. It had a tape stain in the upper right border and a matching one in the upper left border, with three of them in the top border. There was a tear near the middle of the top border that went down into the "C" of "AMERICAN". There were a few other tears and areas of tiny paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in 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.
