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: very good. There is a faint vertical scratch line beginning in the hair of Barrymore at bottom right, and ending at the bottom of his fur collar. The scratch line is also up above in the same portion of the card, in the image of the men on horses (it looks like something scratched down the card, and left scratch marks in a few places and not in others). There are holes in the corners and some smudges and a few minor border defects around the edges of the card, but other than the above, the card is in pretty nice condition!
