My brother in law gave me an unrestored 1947 movie poster as a present and you can see why they get back. The paper seemed thinner than typing paper and I can see how it would easily be torn. It's not like baseball card stock.
He also told me the easiest way to tell if a movie poster is to see if it's linen backed. As they back it in linen before the do restoration. And I suspect that he would consider linen backing itself restoration.
