Important Added Info: This Japanese poster measures 20" x 28 1/2". Condition: good. This poster was linenbacked, but it was either NOT linenbacked by a very talented restorer, OR it was linenbacked many years ago, and has received rough handling over the years, OR it had fairly significant defects that were not well restored. If it was restored, you can clearly see signs of the restoration even from a distance. This is a poster that would surely benefit from additional professional restoration. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had two horizontal foldlines and three vertical foldlines near the center of the poster. There were a great number of smudges and scuffs throughout the poster and many small tears around the edges of the poster. Linenbacking has diminished the effect of the above defects, but they are still noticeable, so please do not bid on this poster unless you have read the above and carefully looked at our super-sized image to get a good sense of this poster's exact condition!
