This poster is currently unbacked. At check out, you will be given the opportunity to add backing which would cost $145 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.
Dinosaurs are further in time than in yards from Hawker Hunters; the Parthenon is no more than a minute from Magna Carta; and Nelson's tunic with its torn epaulette is but a bus ride from the Victory's log book. Time Stands still in the moment of beauty or triumph.
London Transport issues a free leaflet describing the London Museums and showing how to get to them. Visitor's London, an official guide book to London and London's country, costs 4s. 6d. Both are obtainable from the Publicity Officer, 55 Broadway, S.W.I.
Please note minor loss to bottom left corner and slight tears along left edge.
