What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and pretty minor fold wear. It had darkening in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. After the poster was backed, it was roughly handled, and it now has creases in the lower part of the image, and also in the top center of the image (the creases are both in the poster and in the linen behind it, and in some of those areas, the poster is "lifting" from the linen). It can still be displayed and enjoyed as it is, but bear the above in mind before bidding.
