Important Added Info: Note that director Alfred Hitchcock loved to make tiny cameo appearances in his movies. He started doing it occasionally in his 1920s English movies. But when he moved to America in 1940, he made a cameo appearance in every one of his movies, starting with Rebecca. But these appearances were not captured in the lobby cards for his movies, except in the case of "The Wrong Man", where the #6 lobby card prominently shows Hitchcock as a patron in the background of a diner where Henry Fonda is eating. This card is highly prized by Alfred Hitchcock collectors! 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: very good. The card had pinholes in the corners, with a few small tears, smudges, and tiny stains in the borders. It was folded down the middle at a slight diagonal. Overall, the card was in good to very good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still exactly looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see slight signs of the restoration, but the card displays really well! Learn More about condition grades
