Important Added Info: Note that the back of this card was overprinted with a multi-colored rectangular border with interior dimensions of 8" x 10". This was commonly done in the 1950s so that old lobby cards could be re-used as "frames" for 8x10 stills. This IS an original lobby card, and since the overprinting on the back does not affect the front, most collectors consider it a minor defect. The overprinting on the back does not affect the front, and there are four pieces of tape on the back that were used to hold a still in place, but they do not affect the front either. Condition: very good. Other than the overprinting and the tape on the back, the card is in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
