Important Added Info: Note that virtually all the posters and the title card from this movie have the same incredibly striking image of Bette Davis as a Southern Belle with bare shoulders and highlighting her famous eyes against a red background. But all those posters are extremely rare and expensive, and this is a rare opportunity to get the title card, which is printed on the linen paper stock that Warner Bros. used at this time! Condition: good to very good. The card had an enlarged pinhole in the red background below Davis' mouth (at the edge of the red box). It also had some tiny staple holes and tears around the edges, with some faint smudges and scuffs. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still exactly looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see slight signs of the restoration, but the card displays really well! Learn More about condition grades
