Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned two examples of this 1946 re-release half-sheet in the last 14 years! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster never folded. It had pretty minor border wear, with some creases and scuffs scattered in the lower left of the image and in the solid colored areas at bottom. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was well backed, but someone put tape in the center of the top and bottom borders and later removed part of it, causing surface paper loss in that area (this will not show if the poster is framed, or it certainly would not be hard to restore those areas).
