Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Also note that this window card was made for a specific local theater (the "Opera House" in Bangor, Maine). Often larger theaters would hire local artists to create their own "local theater window cards" like this one. They would often feature artwork that appeared on no other posters, and they were NOT issued by the studio that released the movie. Condition: very good. There is a tack hole left and right of center and there are minor scuffs and smudges scattered throughout the card. Learn More about condition grades
