ABOUT POSTER CONDITIONS Condition A Designates a poster in very fine condition. The colors are fresh; no paper loss. There may be some slight blemish or tear, but this is very marginal and not noticeable. A+ is a flawless example of a poster rarely seen in such fine condition. A- indicates that there may be some slight dirt, fold, tear or bubble or other minor restoration, but most unobtrusive. Condition B Designates a poster in good condition. There might be some slight paper lost, but not in the image or in any crucial design area. If some restoration, it is not immediately evident. The lines and colors are good, although paper may have yellowed (light stained). B+ designates a poster in very good condition. B- is one in fairly good condition. The latter determination may be caused by heavier than normal light staining or one or two noticeable repairs. Condition C Designates a poster in fair condition. The light staining may be more pronounced, restorations, folds or flaking are more readily visible, and possibly some minor paper loss occurs. But the poster is otherwise intact, the image is clear, and the colors though possibly faded, are still faithful to the artist's intent.
Condition D Designates a poster in bad condition. A good part of such a poster may be missing, including some crucial image area: colors and lines so marred that a true appreciation of the artist's intent is difficult, if not impossible.
