If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good to very good. There are some nail holes around the edges of the card and one in the upper center (at the bottom of the "T" of "TALKING"). There are a few faint smudges and scuffs scattered in the card. Other than the above, the card is in pretty nice condition. It can certainly be displayed and enjoyed just as it is, or it would not require a lot of restoration to made to look even nicer!
