Nice, joemustang.

Is that poster from the 1950 RR?

Ah  8) Jeff I was allready afraid that I scared everybody away.
question what is the best pic host to use on this forum (or in general, seems that jpegbay is not really working/suitable for this)

People often use photobucket, flickr, weebly, etc.

They all work well as far as hosting images goes.

OK Thx Jeff
I'll try one of those out.

To Dario and the other restorers outthere, I have absolutely NO intention to do this stuff as a living or even to do it for others.
I just want to get some of my old litho posters backed, and since I'm a handy & curious man I sometimes like to do stuff myself.
And as said I will not try out to touch up paperloss or paintbrush or whatever, just want to figure out the LB.
I have for the moment 3 poster at a local restorer, and just bought another that will leave next week.
So no worries, I know my limits,and I am not trying to steal somebody's job.

the poster that will leave this week for restoration, sorry  ;D not a movie poster but as said I have a lot of old Belle Epoque (art nouveau) posters as well. Advantage of the vintage stuff is that it is mostly a no brainer on the LB question.

Thanks guys...  We put it in the mail today for you Mel...

This was one of the first poster I did the paste fill on. Check out the 'right after linenbacking' shot. My before shot was before I knew there was tape on the back.  My wife had to in-paint the entire dress area and the other two cross folds. I would like to say that our feeling about this hobby are straight in line, which is a great thing - we are both near-perfectionist.   At one point we were thinking about masking off all the areas outside the black borders to make it consistent...  Blacks are never black!
