This means the poster was backed onto a heavy paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. What IS paperbacking?

It had a vertical tear in the top center that extended into the very top of the image. It had some creases, small tears, and tiny paper loss around the edges. Overall, the window card was in fair condition prior to paperbacking. A talented restorer did a nice job backing the card, given its defects, and it will display pretty well on the new owner's wall.
