Original movie Lobby Cards are graded as follows from the top down: C10 (Mint), C9 (Near Mint), C8 (Very Fine), C7 (Fine/Very Fine), C6 (Fine or Very Good), C5 (Good to Very Good), C4 (Good), etc. The overall appearance of this Lobby Card and particularly the main image is exceptionally clean, almost pristine. The only 2 flaws in the image area that we found after close inspection under bright light were (1) the pin hole on the bottom right that is about 1" or so into the image area and it is quite unobtrusive and (2) the faint whitish lines on the right under the
Universal
logo.
A flaw that we did not have room to mention above is that there is staining and writing on the reverse of the Lobby Card, but this does not show through to the front of the Lobby Card (see photo 12 of 12).
The other flaws mentioned above are along the borders of the Lobby Card which can be greatly or fully alleviated with proper framing of the Lobby Card.

d
oes include or show the Creature
, and thus this Lobby Card will realize or have more value, and more investment value, than those Lobby Cards that do not feature the Creature.
