Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had a blank top that was neatly trimmed off. It had two horizontal folds near the center. It had some tears and tiny paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are mostly only in the borders. Note that the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster.
