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.

The Golden Gate International Exposition was a World's Fair celebrating San Fransisco's two newly built bridges. Among the multitude of exhibits from the United States and abroad, there was an "Indian Court" featuring the art of Native Americans. With a captivating jagged line design, this Pomo Indian basket is a very effective advertisement.
