The poster has darkened, more so than on other French World War I posters we have seen. There is staining on the back of the right center of the poster, but it has very little effect on the front. There were two tears with tiny paper loss in the background just to the right of the soldier's head and some tears in the borders. Someone put conservation tape on the back of those areas and on the back of the middle crossfold. Learn More about condition grades
