Important Added Info: Note that this item is a "lobby card poster" which is a set of lobby cards printed in a single sheet as a "poster". Theater owners would be able to cut out the cards to arrange however they wanted, but this set has not been "cut" and is considered a full poster. PLEASE DO NOT BID THINKING THIS IS A REGULAR LOBBY CARD SET AS IT IS A "LOBBY CARD POSTER"! Also note that only 4 lobby cards were produced for this movie, and this is the complete set. It was quite common for studios to only make sets of four for short subjects or low budget movies (or re-releases of big budget movies), because it allowed them to print the sets at half the cost, and on shorts and low budget movies, they tried to save money any way they could (especially since it is likely few theaters even bothered to order lobby cards for these titles, since they were likely shown in addition to a better movie). Finally, note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: very good.
