If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This Argentinean poster measures approximately 29" x 43" and is linenbacked. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some very minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). Note that we gave this condition grade to a very few posters that were in pretty good condition prior to linenbacking, but which were not all that well linenbacked, and which could be fairly easily re-backed with only minor additional restoration. The poster had many small tears and tiny areas of paper loss across the middle foldline and a small area of paper loss at the middle crossfold. There was a much lesser amount of wear on the other foldlines. There were pinholes, creases, and some small tears around the edges of the poster. The borders of the poster were folded back at one time. There is a light circular censor stamp in the top left corner of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the restorer did not attempt to remove the censor stamp in the top left corner (which is truly not distracting at all). Learn More about condition grades
