If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good. The card had some scattered staining throughout, with some pinholes, tears, and some areas of paper loss around the edges of the card. Overall, the card was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was well backed by a talented restorer, but they chose to leave alone the scattered staining throughout (and I agree with that decision, because to do so would have required lots of paint, which would have given the card a "heavily restored" look, and I don't feel the staining is all that distracting, and the defects help establish that this is a genuine 80 year-old original window card!). Obviously, one would prefer to find an example of this window card that had no defects or restoration, but I do not know if another example of this card exists (or if it does, if the owner would consider parting with it!). This card has had expert restoration and displays nicely. Learn More about condition grades
