The poster was likely compressed while rolled and it has acquired horizontal creases throughout (see our image). There are some lighter creases and scuffs scattered in various areas and there are some edge defects. After proper restoration the rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
