Linen-Backing and Poster Restoration
Hey everyone,
After about ten years of apprenticing and doing professional poster restoration, I finally opened my own independent studio called Undead Cinematic Linen-Backing and Poster Restoration. If you have a rare print, an original movie poster, or an old family heirloom that is falling apart, I am here to help fix it.
What is linen-backing?
Linen-backing is essentially a conservation method where I mount fragile, aging paper onto archival linen and acid-free paper. It flattens out heavy fold lines, reinforces the structure, and makes the poster safe for framing. I also handle general restoration, which includes fixing rips, tears, water stains, and removing old tape using completely reversible archival techniques.
Experience
Over the last decade, I have worked on everything from rare foreign Star Wars prints and autographed horror originals to classic Frankenstein, King Kong, and Warhol pieces. If it is printed on paper, there is a very good chance it can be saved.
Get in touch
If you have a piece that needs work or you are just curious if a specific type of damage can be repaired, feel free to drop a comment or reach out. I love looking at obscure prints and talking shop.
