3-Mounted to Backing; Tape Removal Resulted in Some Paper Loss

4-Restored And Linen Backed

A nice job for sure and more importantly getting that dreadful tape off will save it from further deterioration (at least for a while anyways!)

I'm surprised at the amount of paper loss the tape removal caused.
That is one fine poster saved from the dustbin of abuse. 
Awesome pics, Jeff.

I was some surprised by that too, Ted. The thing i was wondering too.. maybe the poster had been some pulled together in those fold areas and then tape was applied. With all that tape, this poster must have been separating on all those folds, too.

The end result sure looks nice tho.

I almost had that poster.
Was trying to work out the deal for it while I was on vacation in Peru last year, had a price, then went two days without being able to talk to the guy and he had gone ahead and sold it to the "other guy".

Sean,

That must have been a real disappointment since talks were already in the works..

Very nice poster, The Lonster almost has a slight look of Glenn's monster about him in that poster...

Indeed..there is a "strangeness" about the image, i have to say!

Just a little  to show another example of the fine, "timeless" work that Poster Mountain does (and did).
