Important Added Info: Note that we have only twice before auctioned examples of this window card, and one of them was the same example of this window card that has been re-consigned to us now, so we have still only auctioned two examples of it in all our years of auctioning! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had part of its blank top trimmed off and had been folded down the middle and had many creases, scuffs, and smudges scattered throughout, including in the stars' faces. Overall, the window card was in fair to good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
