This lobby card set from the 1945 re-release are FAR more rare than the cards from the original release, as there were fewer printed (for the smaller number of theaters that carried the movie).
Lobby cards were distributed to theaters typically in sets of eight (though sometimes could contain more or even fewer). A complete set can typically include one title card and several scene cards (though later films would sometimes forgo a title card). The title card typically included the title of the film, the production company, the main actors, and director.

What looks like old water damage on back, but there is no bleed through to the front. All bright clean images.
The stagecoach image has one set of staple holes in top border.
The raft image is a little rough compared to the other cards. There is light rippling on the bottom half, consistent with water exposure. You can feel some slight paper thinning on lower left corner, and a repaired tear is on the right border towards the lower corner. There's a tiny chip in the top border. Small speckles scattered throughout lower right quadrant.
