Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this window card!

Condition: fair to good. The card has irregular tears in the bottom left that are mostly in the background, but very slightly affect the text, and there is surface paper loss in the red background. There is a crease below the tear going through the bottom left credits, and the red paper is separating along that crease. There are stains in the middle right that show clearly in Barrymore's neck and top of his clothes, with surface paper loss at the right end of that area. There are some light stains scattered down the right side of the card below that. There is some darkening around the edges and a faint circular stamp in the bottom right background area. Other than the exact defects described above, the poster is surprisingly in pretty nice condition. A talented restorer can definitely reverse the above damage and the card will display really well, but bear all of the above in mind before bidding on this very rare card.
