It depends on the glue that was used and you cannot tell until you start removing the poster. Some posters mounted to foam board are very difficult to remove because the glue is so strong. I would guess that a restorer would be reluctant to give a quote because they could not be certain about how much time would need to be spent on the job. Regards John

Is it something you need to see based on what glue was used, etc. I'm not looking for exact $$$ but just a general guideline on to the possible extra expense. Thank you, Scott.
