The card was once lightly folded across the middle and partially folded across the upper quarter and lower quarter. You can see creases from those partial folds in the image, but they are not that distracting. There is paper tape on the back of the bottom of the card and four smaller pieces on the back of the upper part of the card. There is something really cool about this card! Someone actually mailed it to a theater just as it was, putting a Canadian 1 cent postage stamp on the back and just the name of the theater and the town as the address, and it was still delivered by the Canadian Post Office!
