Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this 1949 re-release insert (and NO first release inserts), and only one in the last 14 years! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that this poster can't possibly be rolled (because it is on a heavy paper backing) and must be sent in a very large flat package, so bear that added expense in mind before bidding. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had some creases and tiny bits of surface paper loss on the folds, with a few creases scattered throughout the poster and some creases, pinholes, tears, and tiny bits of paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
