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.
Please note this poster was yellowed and had a surface coating when we purchased it. It has been linen backed and washed but there is still some residual staining etc as seen in photo. Still a great art deco image and rare railroad poster.
