Artist: Richardson Studio Important Added Info: Note that for a brief time during World War II (WWII) Australia printed their daybills in approximately a 10" x 30" format (no doubt to conserve on paper!). 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 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 minor creases and smudges around the edges and pinholes in the corners. It was in nice condition prior to linenbacking. It was well backed, and looks great!
