The posters and lobby cards on this title are almost always found with snipes or glue stains over one of the two movies that were shown as part of the double bill, because many theaters receiving this poster only showed one of the two movies, and covered over the part of the poster the related to the other movie. This particular card does not appear to have had any snipes over either of the title areas. The card had some water staining scattered in the card that caused it to be rippled. There were pinholes and some smudges around the edges and some small tears in the left border. Some restorer used restoration paint over much of the blank borders (to "even it out") and put slight amounts of restoration scattered in the image (primarily in the background areas, but a small amount in some of the inset images). The card has NOT been backed, and it will display great on anyone's wall. Learn More about condition grades
