Important Added Info: Note that while we have previously auctioned several first release lobby cards from this movie, we have NEVER before auctioned THIS great scene card, which is the best scene in the set!

Note that this lobby card has been trimmed and it now measures slightly under 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]. Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: good. The card has darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period, but it is not at all fragile, which is a huge plus. A tiny bit of the top blank border was unevenly trimmed off, but only blank paper is affected. There is a tear in the left of the top border that was repaired with tape from the back, and there are several long creases in the right half of the card, mostly affecting the red background, but also extending into Davis' shoulder, chest, and neck. Please look at our super-sized images to get a good sense of the exact condition of this card.
