- 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.

Arbeit in Stadt und Land!
Der eine sät die Saaten
Und bindet Garben, schwer,
Der andre dreht Granaten
Und waffnet unser Heer.
So geht's durch harte Zeiten
Zum Friedenserntefest,
Wenn keiner von den beiden
Die Hand vom Werke lässt.
Work in town and country! One man works hard sowing the seeds and tying up sheaves, the other turns shells and arms our army. Thus things go through hard times to the harvest festival of peace, if neither of the two takes his hand off the wheel.
Printed by Meisenbach Riffarth und Co, Berlin-Schöneberg
