Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had minor wear on the folds. It had areas of paper loss in the blank borders, but only blank white paper was affected, except for in the top right corner, where it slightly went into the brown background, and in the upper left border, where it slightly went into the line border to the left of the bottom of the credits. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
