Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at a few crossfolds and some creases and scuffs on small parts of some foldlines. There was smudging in the white letters of the title. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above (any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster).
