The poster is somewhat brittle and there is separation at the crossfolds and along the top 3" of the vertical fold. There are a few pin holes in each corner and there are some minor creases along the foldlines and around the edges. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition and if one chose to have it restored it would look great! Learn More about condition grades
