Important Added Info: NOTE: Most lobby cards from before 1940 (and some from after that date) did not have individual lobby card numbers like later lobby cards (those printed after the advent of NSS in 1940) did. So we have arbitrarily assigned numbers to unnumbered lobby cards, only when we sell more than one from a set, so that there is a convenient way to tell different scenes apart. (Note that we do not use #1, because this is commonly used to signify the title card). The exception to this is sets of cards that did not have title cards. Condition: good to very good. There is a 4" long slightly semi-circular scuff mark running across Thomas Mitchell's shoulders and into the man behind him. There are a few other scuff marks within the image. Someone put a piece of brown tape on the back of the center of the top border, and a piece of red tape on the back of the center of the bottom border, but neither was put there for any reason. There were some pinholes in the borders and a pinhole in Arthur's shoulder in the inset image. There are a few faint scuffs and creases in the image area. There are a few faint water stains in the top blank border. The back of the left 1" of the card was lightly water stained, but it does not affect the front. Learn More about condition grades
