What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had minor fold and border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but it was slightly roughly handled, and there are now some creases along the top border, mostly in the excess linen, but slightly in the top of the poster.
