This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had some small tears around the edges and some unevenly spaced horizontal folds. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed with no excess paper around the edges. It appears the paperbacking was primarily done for conservation purposes and not for restoration purposes. After the poster was backed, it was roughly handled, which has caused the horizontal folds to "re-emerge", and has also caused a small tear in the upper right border, where the poster is separating from the backing (but in the blank border only). There are also a couple of new border tears in both the poster and the backing. Any restorer could repair these defects without re-backing the poster. Learn More about condition grades
