Important Added Info: Note that this card has a stamp on the back that indicates it came from the legendary "Cozy Theater" collection! 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 to very good. The card has darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period. It is not fragile, which is a big plus. It has pairs of staple holes around the edges, with a small tear in the right of the bottom blank border. There are some faint brown stains scattered in the card, but they are not in the stars' images and are mostly noticeable in the borders and background areas. In spite of the above defects, we would think most collectors could happily display this card as it is, or certainly restoration could be performed. 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
