Condition of Posters
We use the following grades to describe the condition of posters. (You will be notified if the condition of the ordered posters is worse than average and falls below the Fine category.)
Mint / Near Mint - because of the age of poster, it may have some slight defects.
Fine - a poster has some minor flaws: small tears or creases, single pinholes in corners or slightly visible fold lines.
Very Good - a poster has some noticeable defects but not very distracting ones: negligible paper loss on the edges or some other minor defects: tears, tiny smudges or small holes. However, the poster still exhibits well.
Good - a poster in this condition has some significant defects but its appearance is still satisfactory.
Fair or Poor - we do not sell posters in these categories apart from very rare items.
