The poster had an uneven 8" tear in the upper right that went through the woman's hair and out her forehead, into the background next to it. It had smudges and stains scattered in the borders and the white background areas, with some other tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
