This poster is currently unbacked. At check out, you will be given the opportunity to add backing which would cost $145 and take approximately 6-8 weeks.
Linen backing is the industry standard of conservation. Canvas is stretchered and a sheet of acid free barrier paper is laid down. The poster is then pasted to the acid free paper using an acid free paste. This process is fully reversible and gives support to the poster. A border of linen is left around the poster and can be used by a framer to mount the poster so that nothing touches the poster itself. Backing is what we recommend for framing, and for any poster needing restoration.

Published by Holt, Rinehart and Winston The Official I Hate Love BookÂ
A 64-page collection of dark comedy and cynical illustrations targeting romance, exploring the pitfalls, annoyances, and universal frustrations of modern romance, dating, and marriage.
Each page features a highly detailed ink illustration depicting people finding themselves physically or emotionally sabotaged by love.
Like the cover image, the cartoons utilize slapstick, over-engineered "Rube Goldberg" style traps, and biting visual metaphors to show how love can backfire - anti-Valentine's Day style picture book meant to make readers laugh at the absurdities of romantic relationships.
