Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at some crossfolds, with some tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of some folds. It had uneven paper loss down the right edge of the right blank border, measuring 1/2" at its widest, and only blank white paper was affected. It also had approximately 1" trimmed from the bottom blank border, but again, only blank white paper was affected. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and it displays well. The restorer airbrushed some of the solid white areas where the trimming was, so that it would blend better with the replacement paper.
