Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It had stains in the left and right of the top blank area that bled through to the front, with some scattered along the bottom of the poster. Either before or after the poster was backed, it was displayed, and the colors faded noticeably. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept all of the above. Note that the restorer left a tiny bit of excess linen around all four sides of the poster (they left a small border in order to protect the poster from handling damage, but they did not leave a larger border, to allow it to more easily fit in a frame).
