If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: 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. The card is fragile and has darkened around the edges, with some stains and paper loss in the top left blank corner. There was a crease with a tear at the top and bottom of the crease in the lower right corner, and someone put tape on the back of those areas. Still, a restorer could certainly rescue this card. But please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored. Learn More about condition grades
