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 bottom border of the poster was trimmed off, including the small writing and the NSS number. The poster also had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and separation and tiny surface paper loss on parts of some folds. It had some pinholes, smudges, and stains around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the person who did it chose to replace the missing part of the bottom border with the very bottom of an "Anastasia" one-sheet, so the poster now has a 1956 copyright and a 1956 NSS number, even though it should have 1953 information! Obviously, this is very incorrect, but it is unlikely that many people would be staring at the tiny information at the bottom (and of course, a restorer could put the correct information there, either with or without re-backing the poster).
