Important Added Info: 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. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: fair to good. The card was used in another country (likely Australia) and it had the alternate title stenciled over the original title in black and yellow paint (I have no idea how difficult it would be to remove, but it is possibly that it could only be painted over). There was paper loss in the top left corner and someone taped a piece of another card to the back of that area. There is a pinhole in each corner and a small area of surface paper loss in the bottom left corner. There are some faint scuffs scattered in the image background and in Owen's jacket at bottom center, as well as a 1" vertical crease in his jacket.
