Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this Argentinean poster, and that was 20 years ago, when it sold for $810! Also note that at first glance, the art on this poster looks the same as the art on the U.S. poster, but when you look closely at it compared to the U.S. poster, you can see a number of differences, including the cat's tail extending above Hepburn's shoulder, and it seems clear that it was drawn by a completely different artist! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had small paper loss at the crossfolds and small paper loss in the white background above the "A" of "AUDREY". It has some light stains and smudges around the edges and around the "U" of "AUDREY". 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. If I owned this poster, I would have a talented restorer touch up the stains and smudges, probably without re-backing the poster, but bear all of the above in mind before bidding on it.
