Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and a few small bits of paper loss and creases on parts of the folds, with a few smudges around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. Unfortunately, after the poster was backed, it acquired light brown stains in the top and bottom center that extend into the yellow area. They are likely some sort of mildew and the only lasting solution would be to have the poster re-backed, so bear this in mind before bidding on this poster.
