ALIEN, 1979. Original 1 Sheet Movie Poster starring Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt and John Hurt. Directed by Ridley Scott this horror/Sci-fi cross genre movie was a box office smash with some state of the art graphics and designs created by H.R. Geiger. This poster like so many black posters had some color loss along the fold lines which have been retouched during linen backing. A classic poster for your media room.

Linen Backing a poster on canvas requires three essential elements; Linen which is marketed as Cotton Duck:, acid free Japanese Lining paper and a Wheat starch solution containing an alkali buffer which when used together provide a stable acid free environment for mounting a poster.
Linen backing is first and foremost a preservation and stabilization technique. It preserves the integrity of old and valuable paper and assures the poster can be safely handled and displayed.
