Note that Preston Sturges wanted this movie called "Is Marriage Necessary?", but the Production Code Office vetoed that! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: very good to fine. It appears the card was professionally "pressed" and "flattened", and that it had some tiny tears and smudges in the blank borders and a pinhole in the center of the top border. It does not seem that there was any restoration done to the image area, and the card looks fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
