Important Added Info: Note that this poster originally had two different color images on the front and back. But the owner of the poster decided they wanted to linenback this side, so the other side can of course not be seen, because it is covered by the linen backing. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had some creases and scuffs on the foldlines. It had an image on the reverse, but it does not show through to the front. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
