What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had stains and smudges scattered throughout. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely restored, but it required overpainting a great deal of the solid colored areas, and the poster has a heavily restored look to it, so bear this in mind before bidding on this extremely rare poster.
