Important Added Info: Note that most of you probably realize that we copy the credits that are written on the movie posters and lobby cards we sell, and that is why we have such excellent descriptions of each movie. Most credits are in fairly large type, but occasionally, studios use rather small type, especially for minor actors or lesser production people. These cards have the distinction of having the absolute tiniest small credits (easily verified if you look at the title box and look at the very bottom where the tiny credits get progressively even tinier!). Condition: good to very good. The card with Carradine and Lorre has a tear at upper center that has been repaired with tape from the back. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
