Important Added Info: William Fox went all out on the lobby cards for this movie (because it was sure to be a major release), and each was printed on a heavier-than-normal paper stock with a full-color artwork image, and the printing is slightly textured (it looks really great in person)! Condition: very good. There is paper loss in two blank corners and very tiny paper loss in the bottom of the right blank border. There is some other minor border wear. Otherwise, the card is in pretty nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
