Very nice poster!! I assume the seller told you it was Kraft backed? So he should have. It is expensive to remove and re back. I can see from the picture that the backing and adhesive is starting to...

Ah, so that is what Kraft backing is. I've heard it mentioned before, but did not know what it meant. The seller did not mention any backing. Was it common for exchanges to do this to 3-sheets? Can...

I just looked at the sellers listing again. Not only does it not mention that the poster is Kraft Backed, it specifically says. "The poster is not backed."

Well, I hope this is not from a poster dealer or someone who knows posters. This should have been mentioned in the auction, for sure!! I personally consider this a major flaw. Pending on how hard the...

hi spider, i just found your ebay auction. i'll bet the couple selling this had no idea there was a paper backing on this poster. the writing on the back looks old, and probably led the sellers to...

Yes I agree. I'm definitely going to have the poster backed properly, and should have a pic to post of the results withinin a few months.

Wow! That poster is looking superb now! Very nice restoration...I bet the frame set you back a bit $$$

Probably not as much as you think. Hollywood Poster Frames has the best price I know of BY FAR for Archival quality Frames.
