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.
Interesting Cie Gle Transatlantique poster, not showing a specific ship, rather listing 1935 cruises. Lovely illustration of hoards of travelers on the rails as the ship sails.
