Artist: Richardson Studio Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Australian daybill! Note that this is one of an amazing collection of 62 linenbacked Australian daybills that all have great art from Richardson Studio (or John Richardson, before he became "Richardson Studio"!), which many collectors feel have the best art and design of any Australian daybills, and are highly sought after by collectors. These were accumulated by a very dedicated collector over many years, and they are now being all offered at once (in 62 separate auctions), so this is a wonderful opportunity to obtain one or many of these daybills, many of which rarely are offered for sale or at auction. Note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 13" x 34 3/4" [33 x 88 cm]. Also note that, while this poster was printed in Australia, it was specifically made to be used in New Zealand. This was not an uncommon practice and we have seen many examples. These posters often lack the printed rating which can be found on the Australian version of the poster. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster originally measured 15" x 40". It was trimmed on all four sides, and the trimming included the top blank area, used for play dates, plus the bottom area where there was surely a Richardson Studio credit, and the poster now measures 13" x 34 3/4". There were tears in the top fold, including paper loss in the middle of that fold, in Scott's shirt. In addition, the poster was folded vertically, and there were some tears and tiny paper loss on parts of the other folds and some pinholes and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The person who backed the poster performed restoration to the image defects, but they did not replace any of the missing border areas. It displays well, but bear the above in mind before bidding.
