ABOUT THIS CARD:
Single card features Elsa Merlini on a circa 1936 blank-backed card-stock issue out of Italy.
This card is from a set listed on the Movie Card Website's miscellaneous index under "VAV Film Star Caricatures.|
I have a few of these and there seems to be some slight variance in size, so I'm wondering if they were handcut--in any case, this card measures approximately 1-5/8" X 2-1/4 inches. Some of the blue caricatures include an artist's name printed into the card with a 1936 date. (This sale is for the single card named in the title and pictured above).
Both sides of actual card are shown in scans above.
GRADING - CONDITION:
Rare issue so I'm not sure if it was hand-cut or not, but as-is it grades EX+ or 6/10 with touches of wear at corner tips; light overall toning, a spot of soiling at bottom right otherwise faint soiling. Clean back. Scans show both sides of actual item for sale.
OTHER NOTES:
International buyers whose packages are shipping out of the United States are responsible for any and all customs fees. eBay collects and handles most customs/taxes/duties now, but if I'm called to do so then items are sent as Merchandise and the amount I declare on your package is the actual amount you paid for the item(s).
Add to eBay's cart or basket to be eligible for any bulk discounts including combined shipping—I'm almost always offering some sort of deal!
All items that I offer for sale are vintage and date to whichever date is mentioned in the title and/or listing.
