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.
In All Skies
One of Air France’s earliest post WWII posters highlighting a spinning propeller creating Air Frances’s iconic logo.Air France's inherited from Air Orient. This logo was hastily adopted when the company was formed in 1933. Against all expectations, the pilots, flight attendants and ground personnel all adopted this emblem and affectionately nicknamed it the ‘shrimp'.
