Artist: Silvano "Nano" Campeggi Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had small paper loss at the bottom center crossfold (in the top of the "T" of the title), with small tears in the vertical fold below that. It had darkening in part of the lower left blank border and pinholes around the edges. It had small paper loss at the crossfold in Garbo's chin and some small tears and creases on parts of other folds. It had two tax stamps in the middle right. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster onto a thin linen "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above, and the thin linen is slightly rippling down the left and right..
