If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had paper loss at the top crossfold and tears and tiny areas of paper loss in the top 1/4 of the vertical foldline. There were multiple pinholes in the corners and other minor fold and border wear. Overall, the restoration is pretty well done, but you can still see some signs of the restoration at the top crossfold, even from a distance away. Learn More about condition grades
