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.

Size*: 14" x 11"
Condition: Very Good
No pinholes. Some writing on the back that lightly shows through in the white border. A 1" tear above Lana Turner's head that we didn't even see until we held it up to the light. A 1" tear in lower left corner that was repaired with what looks like newer scotch tape from the back. Dirt smudging apparent where the title appears in the blue background, in places around the white border, on Lana Turner's neck and arm and in various lighter places of the card. All smudges are pretty light. Some small indentations in the "E" of "Powell". These defects are only really noticeable with your nose right up to the card. It should display nicely as is. However, light staining like this is easily addressed by a competent restorer.
