If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. 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 was never folded. It had a few tears and small areas of paper loss around the edges. There was a small area of paper loss in Bogart's left hand. Other than the above minor defects, the poster was in pretty nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
