What is paperbacking? This means the lobby card was backed onto a heavy paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original lobby card (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had 1" trimmed from the left, right, and top borders, and 1/2" trimmed from the bottom border. There were also some stains, smudges, and scuffs scattered in the part of the card that remained. Overall, the lobby card was in fair condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, and the missing areas on all four sides pretty well replaced, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
