If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had minor wear on the folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but unfortunately, after it was backed it was roughly handled, which caused two deep horizontal creases near the bottom of the poster (one 1/2" above the bottom edge of the poster and one 1/2" above the bottom of the image). There are two similar stronger creases in the top of the poster above and below the title, and then three not as strong creases in between the other. The seven creases are all both in the poster and the linen. The poster could be displayed as it is, or certainly, one could choose to have it re-backed, but bear in mind this unusual defect before bidding on this poster. Learn More about condition grades
