Important Added Info: Note that lobby cards from this movie are extremely rare. We have never auctioned one until we received this title card (and while we have auctioned window cards and jumbo lobby cards, we have never auctioned a single larger poster)! 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. The card had two scuff marks starting in the center above the "V" of "BACLANOVA", and running through the front of Bancroft's hat into his hair. It also had some smudges in that area. It had some pinholes and darkening around the edges. Someone performed restoration to the front of the card without backing it, and this very rare card displays well!
