Important Added Info: Note that the poster has no bottom border, but it has NOT been trimmed (all of the window cards on this title were printed with the bottom of the image flush with the bottom of the poster). Since these window cards have no bottom blank white border, some people mistakenly assume they have been trimmed, but they have NOT! They measure 14" x 22", and this is exactly how they were originally printed. This is something Disney was experimenting with at the time, but they abandoned it (perhaps because theater owners thought they were receiving trimmed window cards!). 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. There is overprinting on the back of the card, which slightly bleeds through to the front in the background area. Learn More about condition grades
