Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been trimmed and it now measures 11" x 13 1/2" [28 x 34 cm]. 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.

Condition: good to very good. Most of the right blank border was trimmed off. There are tack holes in the corners and in the center of the top blank border, and there is surface paper loss to the right of the tack hole in the center of the top blank border. There is a tiny red stain in Linden's forehead and a few minor scuffs around the edges of the image, with some faint water stains and smudges in the blank borders (see our images). Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
