If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 14" x 21 3/4" [36 x 55 cm]. Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded.

Condition: fair. There is much light staining throughout the card and paper loss at the top (in the play dates area). Still, a restorer could certainly rescue this card. But please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
