Important Added Info: Note that it is extremely likely that this is a "key book" still, and it is virtually a certainty that the punch holes were put there by the studio at the time the still was created, so they are not a defect. Condition: very good. There is a faint diagonal crease in the upper right background area, as well as a few faint smudges and scuffs scattered in the still, but the above defects are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light. There is a piece of brown paper tape over the back of the left 3" of the still. Learn More about condition grades
