What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had small paper loss at the bottom two crossfolds, with separation and some tiny bits of paper loss between the bottom two crossfolds and a lesser amount of wear on the other folds. It had a few pinholes and tiny tears in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see slight signs of the restoration in the vertical fold in MacMurray's face. I would think many people would not be bothered by that, but certainly, any talented restorer could perform additional restoration to that area without re-backing this incredibly rare poster.
