Artist: Al Hirschfeld Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: very good. Prior to being paperbacked, the half-sheet had creases along both foldlines and some creases, smudges, pinholes and tiny areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster, and a few smudges scattered through the image. The poster was nicely backed. From any reasonable viewing distance, you don't really notice the restoration, although you can see signs of it from very close up. Learn More about condition grades
