NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had small paper loss at the bottom crossfold and tiny paper loss at the other two crossfolds. It had some tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss in the top and bottom quarters of the vertical foldline and some pinholes, scuffs, and tiny tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The person who owned the poster had it backed onto linen and then had it attached to a stretcher by stapling the excess linen back over the edges of the stretcher. This caused a lot of staple holes around the edges of the excess linen. It also received some stains in the bottom left blank corner. If I owned this really cool poster, I would surely have it removed from the current backing and have it properly re-backed, after which it will look fantastic, and it will require little paint restoration.
