This poster is currently unbacked. At check out, you will be given the opportunity to add backing which would cost $80 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.
The silhouette of a hanger, symbolizing the days before freedom of choice, overlays a montage of the faces of thousands of men and women marching to Help keep abortion safe, legal and affordable.
It is truly sad that almost 40 years after the National Organization for Women marched to protect women's rights, we have regressed to the dark ages and are living in a country that once again would rather risk women's lives than provide access to health care.
