Linen-backing is a process that is used to preserve movie posters (the best restorers de-acidify the poster during the restoration process), and to make them far easier to display (it is much easier and less expensive to frame a linen-backed poster). When linen-backing is done correctly, it can add to the value of the poster.

eMoviePoster offers a lifetime guarantee on all of the items they auction. This is especially important with linen-backed posters, since collectors are trusting the auction to detail the restoration that was done, according to eMoviePoster.

eMoviePoster doesn’t just auction U.S. and international movie posters. They also auction tens of thousands of vintage stills, lobby cards, as well as scripts, all sorts of special non-movie posters (including lots of war and travel posters, plus Mondo signed limited editions), autographed items of every kind, and more.

They add around 3,500 new lots in their biweekly auctions, every two weeks on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday – which has culminated to over 1,677,000 items. They also hold a special giant auction of bulk lots once every month or two. Collectors interested in bidding with them can sign up on their registration page.
