If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this window card, and only one in the last 10 years. One of those examples has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still only one of two examples we have ever auctioned! Condition: very good. There are show times written in the top blank area and a homemade tagline written in the bottom blank yellow area, but otherwise, the card is in pretty nice condition!
