Artist: Rohman Condition: good to very good. This poster was linenbacked, and it had fairly significant defects which were somewhat repaired during the linenbacking process (we describe both the defects as well as the quality of the restoration below). You should also look at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). there were many small tears in the right end of the top foldline (fortunately in the solid black area); there were tears and small areas of paper loss along most foldlines and along the edges of the poster. The poster was well linenbacked. You can see signs of the repair of the tears when you look closely at the poster, but from any distance away, they are not very noticeable and not at all distracting.
