Important Added Info: Note that there is a real oddity about this card. It appears that the man at left is holding a gun in his hand, and it has been censored, but the censoring was done prior to the printing of the card! Yet this is definitely a first release lobby card, so surely this was intentional. A knowledgeable collector tells us that this was likely due to a period of confusion over what could be shown after Joseph Breen had taken charge of Hays Code enforcement in 1934. Universal decided to "play it safe" and censor images of guns in lobby cards for at least some of their 1934 and 1935 releases. 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. Condition: very good to fine. There are a few tack holes around the edges. Otherwise, the card is in 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! Learn More about condition grades
