Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

UPDATED 04/30/2012: Note that our consignor contacted us and told us the reason he rolled this poster with the image out (see Condition description). It is because he displays his posters on the wall with clips that hang from the ceiling, and when they are rolled outward like this, they can be just clipped up and unrolled and they don't start to roll away from the floor.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had small paper loss at the crossfolds that were on the outside when it was fully folded, with tiny paper loss on that small part of the foldlines that were on the outside. Otherwise, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Oddly, the poster was rolled with the image area outward, which is how it will be sent to the new owner.
