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. Condition: very good. The card had pinholes in the corners and some creases, smudges, and tears around the edges of the card. The person who backed the card used a combination of touch up and some new white paper on part of the blank borders, and did only the slightest touch up to the actual image area (I believe they made a wise decision to only do very slight touch up in the yellow background areas, so as to avoid giving the card a "heavily restored" look). The card displays quite nicely, and there is little actually restoration anywhere in the image. Learn More about condition grades
