Important Added Info: Note that 1939 first release lobby cards from this movie are extremely rare. We once auctioned a complete set 27 years ago, and since then, we have only auctioned four first release lobby cards, until we were consigned this card! 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: fair to good. Some child or bored person scribbled on Grant's upper lip and the edge of his mouth, and they also put tiny mustaches on the women dancing. There were also some stains, tears, and tiny paper loss around the edges, more so in the top background areas. The card was in "fair" condition because of the above defects. Someone put tape on the back of tears and performed paint restoration to the front. Given the card's major defects, they did a pretty good job, but please look closely at our super-sized images before bidding on this card. Learn More about condition grades
