Important Added Info: Note that this poster features a classic image of a silent comedian being menaced by a REALLY giant bad guy! Condition: very good. The poster had a thin 3" strip of paper loss in the upper middle of the vertical foldline, in the top of the green phone box. There was some tiny surface paper loss in the center of the sweater and in the arm of the giant bad guy. Otherwise, the poster had only very minor fold and border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, but the restorer did not touch up the tiny areas of surface paper loss in the center of the bad guy's sweater (any restorer could easily touch up those areas without re-backing the poster).
