Hallam NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: John Floherty Jr. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and a small bit of paper loss in the right of the top foldline in the white background area. It had small paper loss in the lower right blank border and some minor fold and border wear. Overall, 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, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster). Note that the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
