Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tears and areas of paper loss scattered on parts of several folds, and pinholes, tears, and paper loss around the edges. It had writing on the back of the top center, which slightly bled through to the front. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
