Artist: William Hofmann Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some very 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 small paper loss at some crossfolds and creases, tiny tears, and some paper loss in some foldlines (there was more paper loss in the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was folded up; those foldlines are the two top left vertical foldlines running down 2" into the image and the horizontal foldline between those two vertical foldlines). Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
