Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned a complete set of these 1962 re-release lobby cards! Also note that for the 1962 re-release of this classic Hitchcock movie (released to capitalize on the success of Psycho), Paramount added a large image of Hitchcock to the top of the posters (and middle left of the lobby cards), and added a box at the bottom that calls Raymond Burr "TV's Perry Mason" (between Rear Window's first release and 1962, Burr went from being a minor character actor to a major TV star!). Also note that Grace Kelly has been given an added credit that says "The Princess - in her most striking performance!" Note that the new tagline for the movie was "See it! - If your nerves can stand it after PSYCHO!" Condition: good to very good. Card #4 has a light brown water stain in the lower right blank border and two tiny water stain near the center of the bottom blank border, but it is otherwise in nice condition.
