There are many pinholes in Gable's hair and two by his nose. There are some faint scratch marks over his face and one extending into Crawford's face. There are smudges, scuffs, and stains around the edges of the card. There is much paint writing on the back of the card, but fortunately, it does not bleed through to the front (see our image).
