Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this scene card! Also note that for this 1938 re-release (just five years after the original release), RKO created all different border art, and had all full-color lobby cards and posters. In all our years of auctioning, we have only auctioned six lobby cards from this 1938 re-release, as opposed to sixteen cards from the 1933 first release, and a much greater number of cards from all the other releases. Cards from this 1938 re-release are the most rare of any lobby cards from this 1933 classic movie! Now we are currently auctioning the entire set of eight cards from the 1938 re-release, in eight separate auctions! 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: very good to fine. The card has tiny pinholes in the corners and a few faint smudges in the blank borders. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
