Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this 1960s re-release Italian one-panel! Also note that there is a tiny "10/64 Depot legal 64/4" with "27926" by that at the bottom of the poster. This means that this poster is from the 1964 re-release, and that this is the fourth time the poster was printed.

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had small paper loss at some crossfolds and some creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on many parts of some folds. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. Either while the poster was backed or before the poster was backed, something happened and the poster is separated and slightly "lifting" from the linen in the right 2" of the bottom fold (anyone could easily re-glue that area without re-backing the poster).
