Important Added Info: Note that this window card has been mounted onto a heavy board backing. Condition: good to very good. Approximately 1/2" each was trimmed from the left and right blank borders, and approximately 2 3/4" was trimmed from the top blank border, and then the window card was glued to a heavy backing board. There were some faint stains around the edges. There is a vertical scratch in the background by Garland's pinky finger at the lower right, and the scratch extends into the edge of her finger. The person who glued the card to the backing board made no attempt to restore the card, but its defects are not very distracting. Learn More about condition grades
