If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster was gel backed, and while it could be rolled and sent in a tube, we would worry that doing so would either damage the poster or bring back the folds. Therefore, we would much prefer to send it in a large flat package. However, if the new buyer insists, we will send it in a tube, but only if they accept responsibility for doing so. What IS gelbacking? Learn More Condition: good. The poster had some extra folds above and below the regular top one, with some smudges and tiny paper loss on parts of the folds. It had some smudges scattered throughout, with a few tiny stain sin the faces and some minor border wear. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the poster (meaning they backed the poster onto a gel material) and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the poster still looks and feels like an original poster (and it is!), with no backing at all. The poster likely displayed pretty well after it was first backed, but after that, it was roughly handled, and it acquired a 1" tear in the left border, surface paper loss in the bottom border, and two pieces of clear tape in the top blank border. It also acquired some added smudges and scuffs, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Also, someone added a piece of paper tape to the back of the upper part and lower part of the poster for no reason we can think of. Learn More about condition grades
