Artist: Bacha Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward).

Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and minor wear on the foldlines. It had pinholes in the corners. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. At some point after it was backed, it acquired a water stain in the bottom right corner that extends into the bottom tagline area (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
