Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It had some pinholes and small tears around the edges, with tiny paper loss in each right blank corner. Other than the pretty minor border defects, the poster was in nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
