I'm still content to buy linen or paper backed pieces - but it very much 
depends on the title.  It certainly helps to know the condition pre-backing and 
if details of the backer are available, even better.

I'm with Sean on this one, if I see poster that's linenbacked, I immediately 
assume that it had some kind of problem. 


Unless a poster is already sold and the client requires it, these days I only 
have posters linenbacked that have a serious condition issue, that severely 
lower the display value. (Like stains in a white background of an otherwise 
nice condition poster.)



With all the over-restoration, it's already obvious that many people 
(collectors and decorators alike) are already willing to pay a serious bonus 
for unbacked items in great condition. I know that I do.

It used to be a definite plus if a poster was linen backed. Now it seems as if 
the opposite is true.
