Important Added Info: Note that the back of these cards were overprinted with a solid rectangular border with interior dimensions of 8" x 10". This was commonly done in the 1950s so that old lobby cards could be re-used as "frames" for 8x10 stills. These ARE original lobby cards. Condition: fair to good. When a still was attached to the back of the card (see above), someone cut four diagonal slits in each corner of the image, and cut out a small triangle area by each slit. They put the corners of the still into each slit from the back of the card, and then taped the still into place from the front of the card. All but one piece of tape is long gone, but there are four triangular areas of paper loss and four tape stains in each corner of the image. Learn More about condition grades
