Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this title card, and only one in the last 29 years! Note that this card has a faint stamp on the back that indicates it came from the legendary "Cozy Theater" collection! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

What IS gelbacking? Learn More

Condition: very good. The card had a diagonal line of faint blue staining in the top left corner, slightly extending into the tip of the brown area. It had tiny pinholes around the edges, with one in the background between Astaire and Rogers' credits. Overall, the card was in good to very good condition prior to restoration. 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!
