Artist: Glenn Cravath Important Added Info: Note that, for unknown reasons, almost every example of a one-sheet from this movie that has survived with darkened paper and tears and paper loss along the folds! It is likely because of the paper stock that was used. It must have had a very high acid content, because most of the surviving posters I have seen all have turned to a brown color and have paper loss on the folds and borders. One would obviously prefer to find one in excellent unrestored condition, but that might take you the rest of your life! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tears and areas of paper loss scattered down the vertical fold (fortunately, more so in the part not in Superman's figure than in the part in his figure) and a lesser amount on the horizontal folds. It had some paper loss scattered in the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
