The streets were decorated with the appropriate flowers and food and drink were sold. Artist: Werner Hahmann Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this German poster! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward), and it will likely need to be sent in a 6" tube, because rolling it more tightly might damage the poster.

It had some creases and tears on the folds, and around the edges, with a few creases and tears in non-fold areas. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. Someone had the poster backed onto paper with no excess, and it appears it was done solely for conservation purposes, because very little, if any, restoration was done. But backing the poster has diminished how noticeable the above defects are, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
