An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 40 1/4") (Learn More) The Cheerleaders, the 1973 Paul Glickler high school cheerleading sexploitation sports comedy ("Come and huddle with the cheerleaders") starring John Bracci, Jovita Bush, Denise Dillaway, Howdy Gowdy (an obvious parody of Curt Gowdy, playing the announcer!), and Clara Dia (billed as "Sandy Evans") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: What IS linenbacking? "Linenbacking" is a process that is used to preserve movie posters (the best restorers de-acidify the poster during the restoration process), and to make them far easier to display (it is much easier and less expensive to frame a linenbacked poster). When linenbacking is done correctly, it adds to the value of the poster, and is NOT a defect! Note that the specific poster in this auction was well linenbacked, but the restorer did not attempt to make the poster look "perfect". You may still see some slight evidence of the restoration and/or the defects when you look at the poster from inches away, and you may be able to see slight signs of restoration even from a distance. But the poster now looks quite nice, and I think most collectors would be quite happy to display this poster on their wall. In general, know that we received many of the linenbacked posters we are currently selling already linenbacked, but we have examined every poster EXTREMELY carefully, and we did our best to describe what condition the poster was in PRIOR to restoration, the defects the poster had PRIOR to restoration (in the "Pre-Restoration Defects & Quality of Restoration" section), any unrestored defects, and, when it seemed worth noting, something about the quality of the restoration itself. Many other auction houses claim to match what we do in this area, but EVERY person who regularly buys movie posters from major auctions can tell you this is just not the case! We never intentionally overgrade a single item, we never "accidentally" miss defects, and we never enhance a single image! Condition: very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period) and a few scuffs scattered in the white background areas. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
