But then, when Hollywood made this story of his life, he also agreed to both visit the set for publicity photos and also appeared at the premiere! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. 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 stored rolled at one time, and it has a slight curl to it, which causes it to not lay completely flat. This would completely diminish if the card were stored under weight. Otherwise, the card only has some creases and a few tiny tears in the blank borders. 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
