Artist: Soligo Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward).
UPDATED 12/12/2014: Note that we have updated the Condition Grade and Condition Description. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, all four blank borders were trimmed from the poster, and the poster had tiny scuffs and fine surface paper loss on most of the foldlines, with tiny paper loss at the bottom crossfold. It had some pinholes and creases around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
