The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It also had many scuff marks along parts of the foldlines and tape stains in the blank corners. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
