Note that it is funny that the producers said that they were "introducing the following rock 'n' roll stars", because certainly some of them had previously appeared in movies!

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. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward), and it will likely need to be sent in a 6" tube, because rolling it more tightly might damage the poster.

Prior to paperbacking, the poster had separation and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of both folds, with some minor wear around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. After the poster was backed, it was slightly roughly handled, and there are now creases and a tiny tear near the middle of the right border, and in the white background next to it.
