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.

Tomie dePaola's Mother Goose is a collection of over 200 traditional nursery rhymes illustrated in dePaola's signature folk art style.
Mother Goose, a friendly elderly woman, wearing a black flat-brimmed hat with a long red feather, a red and orange striped shawl, a blue skirt, a white apron, and black fingerless glove. Her large white goose with a bright orange beak and webbed feet stands close by her side, which she gently pats with her right hand. Pots of hollyhocks surround them.
Please not folded as original.
