The poster had two tape stains in the top border, in the left and right, and both entered the purple background. It was folded across the middle, but not folded vertically, and there were some creases along the fold. There were a few creases and tears around the edges, with a few small stains around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
