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. Condition: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had some creases and scuffs along the folds, pinholes in the corners, and some minor wear along the folds. The poster was well backed, and looks great!
