NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. 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: fair. There is water staining scattered over the card. A talented restorer could restore the above defects and after proper restoration, the card would look fantastic, but I don't know how much of the staining will come out through chemical means, and how much would need to be painted over, so please read our description above and look at our super-sized image before placing a bid on this poster. .
