The poster had small tears, separation, and tiny bits of paper loss along parts of some folds. There was a second horizontal fold just below the regular bottom one, and there were small tears between those folds. There were pinholes, tears, and some paper loss in the borders. Someone had once put tape on the back of many of the above defects. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. Many years ago, someone backed the poster onto a fairly thin linen, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. The poster could be displayed and enjoyed as it is, or certainly, one could choose to have it re-backed, but either way, the new owner will have a wonderful poster to display on their wall!
