Important Added Info: Note that we have only once before auctioned this great portrait lobby card, and that was 24 years ago, in a complete set! 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. Condition: good. There is light brown staining in the bottom left going into the border art of Howard. There is tiny paper loss in the top right blank corner and small brown stains in the right of the top blank border, with a tiny tear in the middle of the right blank border. One could certainly display this as it is, and it is also likely true that any restorer could remove the staining in the bottom left corner through chemical means. Either way, this great card will display wonderfully on the new owner's wall! Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
