If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Belgian poster! Also note that this is a rare "pre-War" Belgian poster. Prior to World War II, Belgian posters were much larger than the ones from after the war, and they are extremely rare (because during WWII, there was a massive paper shortage in Belgium, and they took virtually every poster and map, and printed new posters on the backs of them!). What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had very minor fold wear. Someone had trimmed off the top blank border, but the poster was otherwise in nice condition prior to linenbacking. The person who backed the poster replaced the missing top border, but did not make an effort to match the color of the other borders, so it is noticeable. They likely did this because they did not think it would be noticeable when the poster is framed, and of course, any restorer could touch up that area to make it match better, without re-backing the poster, and otherwise, the poster is indeed in very nice condition!
