Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. there was separation between the middle crossfold and bottom crossfold and in much of the left of the bottom foldline, and our consignor put tape on the back of those areas. He also put a few other pieces of tape on the back of some parts of folds and the borders, to mend small tears. There was paper loss at the crossfolds and he put tape on the back of each of these and it has bled through to the front. Some of the other pieces of tape have slightly bled through to the front, but they are mostly in the blank borders, and there is no tape on the back of the image or title other than at the three crossfolds. I would think many people could display this poster just as it is, and of course, a talented restorer could certainly linenback it, first removing the tape then touching up its minor defects, then the poster would look great!
