| This poster had previously been folded, with tape on the lower fold lines. This has resulted in some fold line separations and tape stains, esp. in the lower horizontal and vertical folds. Light table examination shows border losses and tears. All border losses and fold line damage have been repaired using paper and/or a filling compound.
This poster has been cosmetically restored using airbrush paint and colored pencil. Considering the amount of restoration performed on this poster it retains a high-quality appearance. The restoration is of exceptional quality.
Areas of airbrush in-painting include: The red title, the blue background (spot painted), the Woman’s face (spot painted), the large Invisible Man’s bandages (spot painted), and the entire border.
Areas of colored pencil work include: All fold lines, the blue box surrounding the title, and all text excluding the Realart logo box, the small “Starringâ€, and the small “Inâ€. Shipped out to client on 05/20/2010 via Fedex ground
