What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had two evenly spaced vertical folds and two horizontal folds, and the top left crossfold fell in Lollobrigida's cheek, and there was tiny surface paper loss in that area, with some tiny bits of surface paper loss on the other folds, and a few tiny dot stains in the borders, with pinholes in the top corners. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
