Important Added Info: Note that there is a fine scuff mark running from Arthur's shoulder at middle left through Stewart's hair, across and up to the bottom of the blue background area at top right (the scuff is pretty invisible except when the card is tilted to the light). There are creases and pinholes across the top blank border and two pinholes just above the "P" of "CAPRA". There are two pinholes in the middle of the left border, one in Stewart's shoulder and one in the background area above it. Other than the above defects, the card is in pretty nice condition. Since the defects are primarily in the top blank border and the long scuff mark is really barely noticeable when the card is looked at straight on, I would think almost any collector would be happy to display this wonderful lobby card on their wall! Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
