NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had an extra vertical foldline just to the right of the regular one. There was small paper loss at the top crossfold. There were some tiny tears and creases around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
