Artist: SEM Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was folded down the middle and ti had minor wear on that fold. It had two circular stains in the left of the bottom border, one of which extended into the background. It had darkening and faint stains around the edges, with a few smudges, scuffs, and faint stains scattered in the image. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
