If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had pretty minor wear on the folds. It had pinholes in the corners and diagonal paper loss in the bottom right corner that affected the last two tiny digits of the NSS number. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the restorer did not bother to restore the two tiny digits of the NSS number in the bottom right corner. Certainly, one could live without that, or one might replace those two numbers without re-backing the poster. Learn More about condition grades
