Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this insert, and that was 29 years ago, when it sold for $550! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had a single fold across the middle, with some creases on that fold. It had a pinhole in each corner and pretty minor border wear. It had some tiny bits of surface paper loss near the middle of the left blank border, extending into the background to the left of Cooper's head and below the first "L" of the title. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
