Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Zorro's Black Whip, the 1944 Spencer Gordon Bennet & Wallace Grissell cowboy western serial ("A Republic Serial in 12 Chapters"; "'ZORRO' character Created by Johnston McCulley"; this movie took the unusual twist on the old character in having it be a woman who dons the Zorro outfit!) starring George J. Lewis, Linda Stirling (in the title role as The Black Whip!), Lucien Littlefield, Francis McDonald, Hal Taliaferro, John Merton, Tom Chatterton, John Hamilton, and Robert J. Wilke NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this card has been "gel backed". What does that mean? It means that a talented restorer backed the card onto a gel material, and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, and afterward the card still looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. Many collectors prefer this method of restoration to paperbacking or linenbacking, because with those methods the card no longer looks like it was not backed. Gel backing can't be used with cards that have major paper loss or other major defects, but for the cards it can be used on, it is really an excellent method of restoration! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. What IS gelbacking? Learn More Condition: good. The card had pinholes around the edges, with tiny paper loss in three blank corners. It had a few stains in the image. Someone had the card gel backed to stabilize it, but otherwise did no restoration. Learn More about condition grades
