Perhaps this is related to the paper drives that occurred during World War II, or there could be another reason. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this window card! Also note that because this card has significant defects, we also pictured the back, because that better helps bidders know exactly what those defects are. Condition: fair to good. There are stains scattered throughout the card. Obviously, this extremely rare card can be restored. This is the sort of poster that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the staining can be removed through chemical means, after which the poster will look fantastic, and it will likely require little paint restoration in the image. But please bear in mind all of the above before placing a bid on this window card. Learn More about condition grades
