Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this title card, but the last time was 10 years ago, when it sold for $910! 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 has darkened, typical of Columbia lobby cards of this period. There are creases and several tears around the edges, with many tiny tape repairs on the back of most (see our images). There was paper loss in the bottom left blank corner and someone taped a piece of another card to that area. There are some faint scuffs scattered around the edges of the image, but they are mostly only noticeable when the card is tilted to the light. The card can be displayed exactly as it is, and it will look great, because most of the defects are in the borders, or the kind of scuffs that don't show when looking at the card head on. See our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of this card. Learn More about condition grades
