Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. The poster had a 3" x 2" area of paper loss in the lower left blank border that extended into the bottom left of the image background. It also had a tear in the bottom left that slightly extended into the credits and some tears and small paper loss in the bottom right corner, with a few stains around the edges. It had some wear on the folds. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style" onto a thin linen with no excess, meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
