What is paperbacking? This means the lobby card was backed onto a very light paper backing (acid-free), that keeps the "feel" of the lobby card similar to that of the original lobby card. Some restorers prefer to paperback lobby cards on to a heavy backing, while others prefer to use a very lightweight backing. The advantage of a lightweight backing is that the card still "feels" like a regular lobby card, but a heavier backing makes restoration easier to do and less noticeable. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had pinholes around the edges, with a few tears and small paper loss in the corners, caused by rough removal of the pins. There was a 2" tear near the center of the bottom border. Overall, the lobby card was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was nicely backed, and displays well!
