Important Added Info: Note that the back of this card was 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. This IS an original lobby card, and since the overprinting on the back does not affect the front, most collectors consider it a minor defect. Condition: good to very good. Four diagonal 1 1/2" cuts were made in each corner of the card, so that an 8x10 still could be displayed on the reverse . After the still was removed, someone put clear tape on the back of each of the cuts, and they are truly barely noticeable from the front. Otherwise, the card is in pretty good condition!
