If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked and during the backing process, its defects were repaired and it now looks nice. From any distance away, you can't see what restoration was done. It may have had only very minor defects, or it may have had more significant defects that were well restored. It is possible that you can see SOME traces of the restoration from a distance, but if so, we clearly note it below. 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 small paper loss at the crossfolds and a thin line of paper loss in the vertical foldline 3" above the top crossfold. There was a 5" diagonal tear starting in the bottom border running into the "YC" of "PSYCHO" in the title. There were tears and paper loss in the right 10" of the top foldline and there were pinholes, creases, smudges, and small areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster.
