We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note that this is one of seventeen wonderful World War I posters we were consigned, which we are auctioning in separate auctions. All of them are extremely fragile and in urgent need of restoration, but all of them CAN be "rescued", and after proper restoration they will display wonderfully (and many of them are incredibly rare). Please read our condition description below and look at our super-sized image before bidding on any of these great posters! Condition: good. There are small tears along portions of the edges with two areas of paper loss in the left border, only slightly affecting the edge of the image. There are light ripples scattered throughout and a few stains. After a relatively simple linenbacking the poster will look great, and it will require almost no paint restoration!
