Standee show obvious wear w/repair to complete break at Gene's neck, creases to his hat, the top of which is missing surface paper in .5x2.5" area. 8" repaired tear at left by Gene's name. Scattered creases at margins and moderate color touch-ups at margins. Easel back shows wear w/top half being loose (but included in two pieces). Good/VG overall but displays bright and clean.
