NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Saul Bass Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had separation and tiny areas of paper loss in the top foldline and in the top 1/4 of the vertical foldline. Other than the above, the poster had just minor fold wear and minor border defects. Overall, the poster was in pretty nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
