If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this window card, which has a completely different (and excellent) image from any of the other posters from this movie! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a heavy paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except 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.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the borders were trimmed off, slightly extending into the background areas. The card was folded across the middle but was otherwise in pretty nice condition prior to restoration. Someone recreated the missing borders and the text in the bottom border, and did a nice job, and the card displays pretty well but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
