[QUOTE="Marie Forjan, post: 410184, member: 147"]Backing with linen is done to stabilize old posters and maps. Posters like this were advertising, like movie posters, not meant to be used for long and not meant to be cherished and collected 60-80 years later. They were not printed on the best paper and were posted in cheap frames or hung by tacks, nails etc. Being cut down does effect value. These are very nice posters and you need to have them evaluated in case they are originals. They can be quite valuable, have an expert look at them in real life for you, not just photos on the internet![/QUOTE]
