Important Added Info: Note that this Italian poster measures 19 1/2" x 27 1/4" and is linenbacked. 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 was folded once vertically and twice horizontally. There were creases and small tears along the foldlines and small paper loss at the top crossfold. There was tiny paper loss at the bottom left blank corner. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see some signs of the restoration along the foldlines. Learn More about condition grades
