Just to explain myself, when I got the DS BTTF2 teaser linen backed I was a newbie. It was in the first batch of posters I bought and I paid $255 for it. It is an awesome design and I saw it in the theater when I was a kid, so basically it's one of my favorites. After getting it, I took it to a framer who has framed stuff for my family since I was a little kid. He assured me that this one and a few others would be fine, so I brought the posters to him, in near mint condition, and when I got them back in the frames, they were all jacked up with dings, waves, all kinds of crap and they looked pretty bad. At the time, I figured I was saving money by getting them linen backed as I thought the going price of a BTTF2 was $255 (of course I later realized that Bruce sells them for about $30-$40 regularly) and got them done by Poster Conservation, who charges $80 to linen back a one sheet and they charged me about $20 for the touch up (restoration) work. They also did my Taxi Driver 30 x 40 and Big Lebowski B1 and I have not regretted it as they look awesome. In all honesty, had I not brought the posters to him, I would have probably never even gotten into collecting posters. So I found MPF and through it the linen backing trade, Bruce, the old timer crew from MPF, and eventually APF through a message posted by Mel on MPF regarding APF. And for the record, I don't take it personally what others think about linen backing. It's obviously not the smartest thing from an investment standpoint to back/restore an omnipresent poster worth $5 and can be bought in mint condition for a few bucks more, but in my experience, the linen backed posters I do own look a lot better in frames than before they were backed. My position still stands, do what you want with your stuff, use them for toilet paper, starters for the fireplace, linen back/restore them and frame them and behold them in awe as well as others for the works or art they looked like when in pristine condition, whatever makes you happy.
