If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this international style one-sheet (one was only in "good" condition and one only in "good to very good"), and one of those three posters has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still only one of three examples we have ever auctioned (and it is the one in the best condition of the three)! Also note that this is an "international" style one-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box and NSS information. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It also had some tiny creases on parts of some folds. It had faint brown stains in the center of the bottom blank border. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the restorer left alone the faint brown stains in the bottom blank border described above (likely rightfully assuming that they will never show when the poster is framed).
