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 parts of some folds, more so in the folds in the upper right. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was backed pretty well, but after it was backed, it was likely framed, and there is faint staining over the back of the linen, but it does not affect the front.
