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.
