- 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.

Signed in plate with Penfield's bull's head logo.
Allthough Penfield focused on female subjects, his portayal of men was equally adept. The heat of August is eased by a ice cold drink as the subject reads, what is assumedly Haper's Magazine.
On old linen backing.
