Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this Australian one-sheet, and we auctioned that example twice before, 6 years ago and 14 years ago. That same poster has now been consigned to us a third time, so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned! Also note that this Australian one-sheet measures 27 1/4" x 40" [69 x 102 cm].

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had an extra vertical foldline 1" to the let of the regular one, and a diagonal crease just above the left half of the top horizontal fold, and a matching one just below the left half of the bottom fold. It had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds, with a few tiny scuffs and tiny tears on parts of the vertical foldline. It had pinholes in the corners. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
