    above and study the detailed photos~!
    Note:
    If that character tear through Remember bothers you and you don't wish to spend the money to have it permanently mounted, I have seen many interesting repairs on these posters over time and one technique that could work for this one is placing a non acid paper behind it and creatively coloring in the missing area. Even an off white back mat or green mat would tone down the look of the stalk white backing I photographed this on.
    After all, what's an antique without
    character
    blemishes?
    Photos:
    May not be 100% accurate but I strive to get them as close as possible and will tell you if they are off in any way.
    For instance:
    This poster photos are an excellent match color wise but my lighting set up cast a very light shadow on the top part of the full photo you see of the poster, but the color is uniform with no shadow!
