Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster was never folded. It had many creases and tears around the edges, with paper loss scattered in the right of the top border, but almost completely in the blank white area. Some of the creases extended into the edge of the image or the credits, but generally, the image area only had a few creases and displays pretty well. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the border restoration.
