Artist: Roger Soubie Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at some crossfolds and some separation and tiny paper loss on small parts of some folds, with some creases and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was backed onto a fairly thin linen with no restoration. It is slightly "lifting" from the linen in the top right of the image (in Taylor's hair and shoulder; any restorer could re-glue that area without re-backing the poster, and at the same time they could perform restoration to the other above defects, or one could choose to leave the poster as it is).
