Condition: very good to fine. Prior to linenbacking, the poster was in very good to fine condition. The poster had an extra crease running just to the right of the regular vertical foldline from the top crossfold to the middle crossfold. There was a 1/4" x 3/4" hole at the middle crossfold (mostly in the black background, but just touching the edge of Monroe's hair). There were much smaller holes at the other two crossfolds. The poster has had extremely professional restoration along the foldlines! Normally when one restores a solid black background poster, it is very common that the restoration (no matter how slight) really stands out and is distracting. But on this poster, the restoration is almost completely invisible! Overall, the poster was in nice condition prior to linenbacking and looks great now!
