Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had minor fold and border wear. It had a blue scuff line down the lower left of the poster (which may have been a printing defect), with some tiny dot stains in that area. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
