Not only that, ANY first release posters from this movie are incredibly rare. We auctioned an insert in 1991 (for $7,700), but no other posters until we were consigned this window card. Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a heavy paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, the window card had stains and smudges scattered throughout, with pinholes, tears, and paper loss around the edges. Overall, the window card was in fair condition prior to paperbacking. Given the poster's many defects, the restorer did the best they could, but they did not want to paint over the image areas, so you can still clearly see signs of the many stains the poster once had. Bear this in mind and look at our super-sized image before bidding on this extremely rare window card. Learn More about condition grades
