The original lobby cards look identical to those from this re-release, except that they are on "linen" paper. Many dealers have unknowingly sold these great re-release cards as originals! Condition: good to very good. the card had the gun in Cagney's hand painted over (probably by a Canadian censor, as they regularly censored out guns on U.S. lobby cards); someone did a fairly decent job of re-painting the gun and the top of Cagney's hand, but you can see that there is restoration if you look at that area; there also was some restoration in the left and right background areas; there are many pinholes, a few small tears, and two areas of paper loss in the top border Learn More about condition grades
