Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned several first release lobby cards from this movie, but we have NEVER before auctioned THIS scene card! 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 very slightly darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period, but not as much as most, and the card is not at all fragile, which is a huge plus. Unfortunately, there is scuffing in parts of the dark colored areas of the image, which could be a printing defect, but it is noticeable. There is light staining in the left of the bottom border, with a few tiny stains and pinholes around the edges. Please look at our super-sized images to get a good sense of the exact condition of this card. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
