Important Added Info: Note that this poster measures 18 3/4" x 21 3/4", but it does not appear to be trimmed. Also note that this window card was never folded. 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.
