Artist: Grinsson

Condition: good to very good. The poster had had darkened on many foldlines, more so in the blank borders, and in the light colored background areas (typical of French one-panel posters of this period). There were creases, tears, and some tiny areas of paper loss on some foldlines and some small areas of paper loss at some crossfolds. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can still see some signs of the restoration to the above defects (it is not all that distracting, and I would think many people could happily display this poster just as it is, and certainly, a restorer could likely perform additional touch up to the poster without re-backing it).
