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.
Rare and wonderful cutaway of the RMS Aquitania showing all decks from the lowest boiler rooms, through storage / baggage, to 3rd Class, 2nd Class and finally the grandeur of First Class on the uppermost decks. All under Cunard’s colorful red funnels.
