Hello Blueman,

The condition is not the problem, it can be arranged (you can have the poster backed on linen, that's what most museums do).

The real problem being, is this poster original or not ? Frankly, I have a little doubt concerning the authenticity of this poster (I possess this poster too). I don't like the printing (looks to me more like a serigraphy than a lithography), I don't like the colours (in particular the red fluo of the flag and EK ribbon), so I am very suspicious regarding this poster. Moreover it is a small size which makes it easier to copy. I would love to ear from an advanced Dutch collector that it is perfectly genuine, unfortanely I am not in touch with such people. Nevertheless if this poster is original than it is one of the ugliest SS recruitment poster I have ever seen.

Cheers

Bill
