Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned a complete set of lobby cards from this movie, and that was 9 years ago, when it sold for $746! No doubt almost all sets were "broken up" and sold by the card, especially because Marilyn is in every single card! Condition: very good. All the cards have staple holes around the edges and a few have small tears from when staples were removed, but otherwise, the cards are in pretty nice condition, with no restoration (see our images).
