- Linen backed
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.
The price of this poster includes linen backing.

From an edition of 128 this is hand numbered 1/128.
Please note this poster does not include the line of text reading NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR A SANE NUCLEAR POLICY 17 E.45 ST. PREPARED BY GRAPHIC ARTISTS FOR SANE. The poster does not appear trimmed and as it is number 1 of the edition, it seems likely that the poster was printed as shown and the printers information added to later prints.
