The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and a few tears and tiny paper loss on parts of the folds. It had paper loss at the bottom of the title, affecting the bottom of the "o" of "for" and a tiny bit of the bottom of the "f", extending down into the "OWNE" of "BROWNE" and into the "BY" of "BOBBY" and the "DE" of "LEDERMAN". It had some creases and tiny paper loss around the edges Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. A restorer nicely replaced the paper loss described above, but the restoration paint has aged differently from the poster, so it is surely more noticeable now than when the poster was first backed. In spite of this, the poster displays pretty well, and certainly, some additional restoration could be performed in that area, without re-backing the poster. Learn More about condition grades
