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 paper loss at each crossfold. There were creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on most foldlines. There were tears, smudges, and small areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster. The poster was well backed, but you can see signs of the restoration on the foldlines, even from a distance. Learn More about condition grades
