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.
Striking red and black graphics of Japans landscape and cultural heritage, including traditional Japanese architecture, a curved bridge over a flowing river, mountainous terrain, and Mount Fuji.
The booklet was originally prepared for the information of dependent families of personnel assigned or attached to the Far East Command in Japan and later used to foster goodwill and understanding between the United States and Japan during the post-World War II occupation and rebuilding period.
