About Linen-Backing:
Linen-backing is a meticulous preservation technique that elevates both the durability and aesthetic appeal of movie posters. The process involves mounting the poster onto premium linen using archival-grade adhesives, ensuring it remains perfectly flat, smooth, and free from wrinkles or tears. Minor damage (e.g., small tears, pinholes) is expertly restored, often with hand-painted touch-ups to revive faded colors and lost details. This method provides structural integrity, protects against environmental factors like humidity, and significantly enhances the poster’s longevity and value.
