If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: good. water stains, discoloration, and light rippling throughout the card; theater name and play dates snipe in the blank area at the top of the card (held in place with two staples); paper loss in the lower left blank corner (see the image below); horizontal crease across the middle of the card as well as smudges, scuffs, and minor creases throughout the card (more so around the edges); Note that this is the kind of window card that responds well to restoration! The water stains can almost surely be removed by chemical means, and the card would look great, without a lot of paint anywhere on it. But please do not bid on this window card unless you can accept its defects or are willing to have it restored!
