- Linen backed
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.

Port Alfred, a small coastal town in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. Situated at the mouth of the Kowie River along the Indian Ocean, it was known for its relaxed seaside atmosphere, and a popular destination for boating, fishing, and water sports. The town also serves as a gateway to the Kariega and Kowie Nature Reserves.
