What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was slightly trimmed, because it measures 29" x 38". It had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some scuffs on the foldlines. It had a small stain in the left of the top border. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
