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.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and fine surface paper loss on parts of some folds, with small stains in the vertical fold , where it ran through the left of the first "P" of "PEOPLE" and slightly in the girl's leg underneath. It had several pinholes in the background area at bottom center above the "Y" and "T" of "CYNTHIA", and a few in the top of those letters. It also had some tiny pinholes in the background below the middle of the girl's dress. It had tiny stains evenly spaced in the right blank border and one tiny stain in the lower left blank border. Other than these above basically minor defects, the poster was in nice condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and will display well on the new owner's wall!
