If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and separation at the top and bottom of the foldlines. There was minor wear on the other folds and minor border defects. The poster had darkened somewhat. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did next-to-no restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting. Note that the restorer left a tiny bit of excess linen around all four sides of the poster (they left a small border in order to protect the poster from handling damage, but they did not leave a larger border to allow it to more easily fit in a frame) Learn More about condition grades
