If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this poster, and only one example in the last ten years! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? 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. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward), and it will likely need to be sent in a 6" tube, because rolling it more tightly might damage the poster. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had paper loss at the top and bottom crossfolds, with tears and small areas of paper loss scattered down the vertical fold, and a lesser amount of wear on the horizontal folds. It had pinholes around the edges, with paper loss in the top blank corners. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to paperbacking. Many years ago, someone backed the poster on a thin paper backing with no excess, and over the years, the top fold has returned, so there is now surface paper loss along that area. The poster could be displayed as it is, but if I owned it, I would have it removed from the paper backing and linenbacked, and after proper restoration, the poster will display well, but bear in mind its defects and the cost of restoration before bidding.
