What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had several extra folds, some at a diagonal, with smudges and scuffs scattered throughout, and some tears in the area just above the title box. There was some paper loss and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
