What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It had pinholes in the corners and in the center of the left and right borders, with some paper loss caused by rough removal of pins. It had a New Zealand rating snipe glued to the lower right (in the background area). Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects, and the restorer left the New Zealand snipe on the poster.
