This poster is currently unbacked. At check out, you will be given the opportunity to add backing which would cost $195 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.
Local Hero, the classic 1983 Bill Forsyth English Scotland big business oil company comedy ("A beautiful coastline... a rich oil man wants to develop it. A poor beach bum wants to live on it.

Only one of them will get their way."; "Music by Mark Knopfler"; "Written and Directed by Bill Forsyth"; "From the producer of the Academy Award winning 'Chariots of Fire', a brilliant new film by David Putnam.") starring Peter Riegert, Denis Lawson, Fulton Mackay, Burt Lancaster, and Norman Chancer
