Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the lobby card was backed onto a very light paper backing (acid-free), that keeps the "feel" of the lobby card similar to that of the original lobby card. Some restorers prefer to paperback lobby cards on to a heavy backing, while others prefer to use a very lightweight backing. The advantage of a lightweight backing is that the card still "feels" like a regular lobby card, but a heavier backing makes restoration easier to do and less noticeable. Condition: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had staining on the back of the lower right, starting in the word "DESERT" and scattered down to the bottom border. It also had stains and darkening around the edges. It had been partially folded horizontally across the bottom of the credits. Overall, the lobby card was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was pretty well backed, but you can see slight signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
