If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good to very good. There is a 3/4" tear in the right border, extending into the blank background. There is some uneven slight darkening in the bottom of the poster. There are some faint smudges and scuffs around the edges and a mark in Bennett's cheek, and two in Crosby's neck. There is a pinhole in the lower center of the poster in the blank background area. Someone took this window card to a baseball game and used the entire back of it to write the box score of the game, but because the card is on a thicker stock, it did not affect the front. The card has never had any restoration or tape on the front or back. Learn More about condition grades
