Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this scene card, and the last one was 12 years ago! 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. The card had darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period. The card had many staple holes around the edges, with a pair in the lower part of Fonda's pants and a pair entering the forehead of the man at top center. Someone lightly bleached the card and flattened it, and they put small pieces of tape on the back of all the staple holes and performed slight touch up to the fronts of those areas. You can still see signs of the restoration, so look at our super-sized images and bear all of the above in mind before bidding on this rare card. Learn More about condition grades
