Important Added Info: Note that the poster has an artist's signature on it, but we cannot make it out in the slightest.

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: good to very good. The card has darkened slightly around the edges. It has tiny areas of paper loss down the right edge and in the right of the bottom blank border, but only blank white paper is affected. There is a 3" tear near the center of the bottom border. The card is fragile and must be handled carefully, but its defects do not affect the image, and are easily correctable through restoration, or the card can be displays and enjoyed just as it is!
