Important Added Info: Note that original Freaks lobby cards sell for thousands of dollars, and yet they barely show any of the "freaks". Most of the 1949 re-release cards and posters show prominent images of the "freaks", and of course, this card has a wonderful close-up of "the Chicken Woman", which was not pictured on any of the original cards! 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: very good. There is a tiny bit of paper loss and faint staining in the top left blank corner, with a few pinholes and faint smudges in parts of the borders, more so in the top blank border. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
