NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that "All American News Inc." was a 1940s company that primarily released black African American films. Much of the movie paper they printed was sepia, but occasionally they did something more exotic, including this card, which has a colored border that extends into the title and credits. Condition: good to very good. There is tattering and paper loss in the corners of the card and there are some scuffs and smudges scattered throughout. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
