Important Added Info: Note that, other than the minor tape repairs described below, this card is completely unrestored and has never had any restoration of any kind, nor has there been any tape on the front or back of the card. The back of the card is completely blank, except for a 1/2" x 2" printed white sticker (in the center of the back of the card) which was put on by the owner of the collection, and also a stamp from a poster exchange, and neither has any effect on the front of the card. NOTE: Most lobby cards from before 1940 (and some from after that date) did not have individual lobby card numbers like later lobby cards (those printed after the advent of NSS in 1940) did. So we have arbitrarily assigned numbers to unnumbered lobby cards, only when we sell more than one from a set, so that there is a convenient way to tell different scenes apart. (Note that we do not use #1, because this is commonly used to signify the title card). The exception to this is sets of cards that did not have title cards. Condition: very good. There are two 1" tears near the middle of the bottom border and someone put tape on the back of each of them. The area between the two was creased at a slight diagonal, and this is slightly noticeable in the bottom of the solid colored area. There was a 1/2" tear near the middle of the right border and someone repaired it with a piece of tape from the back. There were a few pinholes around the edges of the card and a few faint creases and smudges around the edges of the card. IN THIS SPECIAL ALFRED HITCHCOCK LOBBY CARD AUCTION, we have given a more detailed overall condition grade along with more details about the condition described in words. Of course, we could not describe every single defect, plus there are some defects (like tape on the back, extremely tiny pinholes, etc) which can be VERY difficult to see, even in our largest "super-sized" image. Therefore we strongly recommend that you BOTH read our written description of the item, AND ALSO look at our super-sized image to see the extent of the defects that we describe and to examine the poster for minor defects that we did NOT describe. We have also noted what, if anything, is on the back the lobby card, and whether it has ANY restoration of any kind, including amateur tape restoration. Learn More about condition grades
