Artist: Richard Avedon Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been "gel backed". What does that mean? It means that a talented restorer backed the poster onto a gel material, and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, and afterward the poster still looks and feels like an original poster (and it is!), with no backing at all. Many collectors prefer this method of restoration to paperbacking or linenbacking, because with those methods the poster no longer looks like it was not backed. Gel backing can't be used with posters that have major paper loss or other major defects, but for the posters it can be used on, it is really an excellent method of restoration! What IS gelbacking? Learn More Condition: good to very good. The poster was folded across the middle and had surface paper loss and scuffs along that fold. It had some smudges and scuffs scattered throughout. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the poster and performed restoration to the above defects, but you can clearly see signs of the restoration and the defects, especially from close up, so please look at our super-sized image before bidding.
