The poster was placed on to a very thin linen backing shortly after being printed. The purpose was to reinforce the poster, so that it would survive, when it was passed from theater to theater, and when it was put up on walls and taken down. Such posters can be professionally removed from the original linen and placed on to a proper linen backing. There is spotty discoloration scattered in some areas of the poster from exposure to moisture. There are areas of separation along parts of some of the foldlines. The poster was trimmed along some edges. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
