Condition: very good. The poster had paper loss at the top crossfold and there was once tape on the back of the center 4" of the top foldline. There was tape on the back of the left 3" of the top and middle foldlines and some minor wear on the foldlines. There were pinholes in the corners and some creases and tears caused by rough removal of the pins. 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 of the background areas that had tape on the back of them (as described above), although any restorer can certainly perform additional restoration to those areas without re-backing the poster.
