Condition: very good. there was a semi-circular piece missing from the center of the top border, just extending into the brown background area; someone re-attached it to the card using white tape on the back; there are many creases, smudges, and tiny tears around the edges of the card; there are two pinholes at the top center of the image, above and beside the monster's head in the background (the tape that mended the tear at top center also covers these two pinholes), a pinhole in the bottom center in Karloff's credit, and a pinhole in the left and right edges of the image; the image area is generally in good condition; there are minor creases in the extreme top right corner of the image background. I would think many collectors could happily display this card as is, but of course a talented restorer could make the card look great without putting paint in the image area!
