Important Added Info: Note that, other than the tape repairs described below, this card is unrestored and has never had any other restoration of any kind, nor has there been any other tape on the front or back of the card. The back of the card is completely blank, except for two small letters written in pencil on the back of the bottom left corner. NOTE: Most lobby cards from before 1940 (and some from after that date) did not have individual lobby card numbers like later lobby cards (those printed after the advent of NSS in 1940) did. So we have arbitrarily assigned numbers to unnumbered lobby cards, only when we sell more than one from a set, so that there is a convenient way to tell different scenes apart. (Note that we do not use #1, because this is commonly used to signify the title card). The exception to this is sets of cards that did not have title cards. Condition: good to very good. The top border of the card had many creases and tears and a couple of tiny areas of paper loss. Someone put four tiny pieces of clear tape on the back of some of those tears. There is a tiny pinhole in each corner and some smudges around the edges of the card. There are some tiny pinholes and faint stains in the top center of the image and there is a 3" slightly diagonal scuff mark in the top of the wall at the center of the image. There is tiny paper loss in the center of the left blank border. IN THIS SPECIAL ALFRED HITCHCOCK LOBBY CARD AUCTION, we have given a more detailed overall condition grade along with more details about the condition described in words. Of course, we could not describe every single defect, plus there are some defects (like tape on the back, extremely tiny pinholes, etc) which can be VERY difficult to see, even in our largest "super-sized" image. Therefore we strongly recommend that you BOTH read our written description of the item, AND ALSO look at our super-sized image to see the extent of the defects that we describe and to examine the poster for minor defects that we did NOT describe. We have also noted what, if anything, is on the back the lobby card, and whether it has ANY restoration of any kind, including amateur tape restoration. Learn More about condition grades
