What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had paper loss at the crossfolds. It had a second vertical fold 1/2" to the right of the regular one, with small tears and some small areas of paper loss between those folds. It had extra creases above and below the bottom two horizontal folds, with some tears and small paper loss in those areas. It had some small tears and tiny bits of paper loss in Abbott's chin along the horizontal fold. It had pinholes and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
