I believe I once had the entire set, and I am pretty sure that there is a tiny image of Fields on the title card, and that he only appears on this one wonderful scene card (if I am mis-remembering, please correct me and I will post it here)! Condition: good to very good. light faint scuffs over the dark background above Fields' image and in the dark areas of his clothing; a couple of light water stains at the bottom of his shirt, and one in his neck; creases, smudges, small brown water stains, and a couple of tiny tears around the edges of the card; the back of the card has four areas of blue stains (where it must have once been glued to something), and when the card was removed from what it was attached to, there were three small areas of surface paper loss in three corners, but none of them have an effect on the front Learn More about condition grades
