If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this window card, and only one in the last 19 years! Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: fair to good. The card had tears around the edges, with some surface paper loss and also some paper loss in the lower right that extended into the background area. Long ago, someone had put tape on the front of some of the tears, and that tape had darkened. At some point, someone glued the window card to a heavy backing board that measured 1/2" larger all around, but made no attempt at restoration. Obviously, a talented restorer can remove the card from the board and perform much needed restoration, but bear all this in mind before bidding. Learn More about condition grades
