Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this insert, and that was 10 years ago! Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat 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. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we know it would definitely lessen its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).

Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. After it was backed, it was slightly roughly handled, and it now has faint creases in the top and bottom 2", but they are not very noticeable or distracting. Learn More about condition grades
