- 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.

Possibly one of the rarest of all American recruiting posters, in excellent condition, slightly narrow borders on left and right sides. Wonderful illustration.
Over size eagle in flight through a cloudy sky, with a smiling Marine seated on its back. Below them is a biplane in flight with Marines insignia, and a white plane in the background with a red, white and blue tail.
