What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had a strip of vertical paper loss 1" to the right of the top quarter of the vertical fold, running down into Abbott's hair. It had small paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny tears and fine surface paper loss on parts of most folds, with pinholes around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
