This poster is in Very Good to Finecondition and was Linenbacked.

The poster looks very good and I believe most collectors would be happy to display it on their wall, but you be the judge from the picture above.

Prior to Linen-backing this poster had a fairly large area of paper loss at the bottom crossfold and some small areas of paper loss along the vertical foldline.  The borders were pretty tattered, and the person who did the restoration put new blank white paper over all the borders to even out the appearance although the small writing at the bottom of the poster was not covered over (a common technique used by several top restorers).  The poster was restored well and the restorations do not cause significant detraction since it was only the blank white area.  The poster is well backed and displays wonderfully.  

Linen-backing is used to preserve movie posters which makes the movie poster much easier to display.  Linenbacking adds to the value of the movie poster and makes the quality more visible.
