Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that this window card has been trimmed and it now measures 14" x 20". Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good. The window card originally had a blank top that was neatly trimmed off (this was commonly done with window cards, when the top had been left blank, or when someone had hand-scrawled play date information in that area). Most collectors do not consider it to be a significant defect at all, since only blank white paper is lost, and the window card becomes easier to frame. There is uneven darkening and small tears around the edges of the card, as well as a 5" tear in the upper right border. Learn More about condition grades
