Important Added Info: Note that first release 1928 movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only auctioned three scene lobby cards (and no posters) from this movie until we received this title lobby card! Also 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. The card had paper loss in the top right corner entering the yellow background and a thin strip of paper loss and a tear in the upper left corner, slightly entering the yellow background, but mostly in the green and blank borders. There were pinholes in the bottom corners. There were some pinholes within the image and some small stains scattered in the card, including a few in the faces. The entire card had darkened. Overall, the card was in fair to good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still exactly looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see signs of the restoration, and the restorer did not address the darkening, but it generally displays well (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
