What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny bits of paper loss on small parts of some folds and some creases around the edges. It had tears and small paper loss scattered across the bottom blank border, but only blank white paper was affected. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
