Artist: G. Di Stefano Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at just a few crossfolds and a very few creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some foldlines. There was an Italian word written on the back of the poster, and it slightly bled through in the middle of Burton's cheek. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The person who backed the poster left alone that slight bleed-through described above (but it is not very noticeable from any reasonable viewing distance and a talented restorer could touch it up without re-backing the poster).
