Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster has fine surface paper loss and scuffs on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). Note that this is one of a large group of one-sheets we were consigned, which were all linenbacked by the same restorer. They are all posters from the 1970s to present, and they were simply mounted onto a very thin linen backing, with approximately 2" of excess linen left of on all four sides of the poster. We are not really sure what purpose the backing served, because the posters had little wrong with them to begin with (and the restorer simply backed them without performing restoration), and the restorer left more excess linen than is normal, but some or all of it could easily be trimmed off.
