Note that MGM was worried about how well this movie would do at the box office, and they did something we don't remember seeing on any other major movie advertising! One of the taglines says "Biggest sensation since Snow White", which means MGM was advertising a Walt Disney movie, but that shows just how worried they were! Of course, they needn't have worried, because this was a timeless classic that has only improved with age. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: fair to good. Seven of the eight cards have had all four corners diagonally clipped (see our image). The eight one has surface paper loss and tape stains in the corners. All of the cards have a pinhole in each corner and some creases in the upper left background area with a few other creases scattered through the cards. One has a date written in the center of the top blank border. In spire of the above defects the cards can certainly be displayed and enjoyed as they are but bear in mind their defects before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
