Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had approximately 1/2" trimmed from the bottom of the bottom blank border (only blank white paper was affected). It had paper loss at the top crossfold and tiny paper loss at the other two crossfolds. It had an extra fold in the right half of the top foldline (just above the regular fold), with some tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss on small parts of some foldlines. There were some pinholes around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, but the restorer did not replace the missing 1/2" of blank paper from the bottom, and did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster.
