Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: good to very good. The card was "starch backed", which means that it was moistened with a special starch solution, attached to a backing, allowed to dry, and then the card had touch up while it was backed, and afterward, the backing was removed. This particular card had pinholes around the edges, with pinholes in the top background area and two pinholes in the back of Gort's helmet. It had a few light creases and faint smudges around the edges. The card was starch backed by a talented professional and expert restoration was performed to the above defects. The card looks displays really well, and best of all, it still completely looks and feels like an unrestored lobby card! Learn More about condition grades
