Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card (and nine others we are offering this week) were literally found in a barn, where they had been for the past 78 years! Each of the ten cards have MAJOR condition defects, so we have provided scans of both the front of the card and the back of the card, which allow you to clearly see exactly what condition the cards are in. We are not going to describe them, because you can see what is wrong with them from our images. Note that all of the cards have darkened to different degrees, and all of them are extremely fragile. But certainly, a talented restorer can paperback the card, and after proper restoration, the card will look nice, but it will surely be expensive to restore, and will have somewhat of a "restored" look after restoration, so bear all of this in mind before you place a bid on any of these cards! Note that this is our second offering of these cards. There were ten other cards which we auctioned individually, and those closed on January 25. There were also 72 other cards in this amazing find which are from lesser titles than the 20 cards we sold individually, and we are selling those 72 cards in 12 group lots (they will start on February 3rd and close on February 10th). Sadly, there are no more of these cards after these cards are auctioned! Condition: poor. The card has major condition issues . See our super-sized images of the front and back of the card to know exactly what is wrong with this card. Note that in the case of this card, there are stains on the man's face and in the face and body of the woman, and stains on the title. Learn More about condition grades
