Instead of attempting to replicate these display cases in detail, we adjusted their designs - since we take it as a given that, though many of our friends and customers would like the option to change out their displayed holdings periodically or on a whim, and would like the look of a cinema display case, none of them cared to imitate the typical mom & pop movie theater's treatment of this week's 1-sheet by gluing or stapling it over last week's...Finally, to complete the effect, this particular case includes a slot where, if you like, you can place a theater-style placard. The case is shown with an authentic "Now Showing" placard of the actual type used during the 1960s and later at the Pacific Theater chain in the United States - which included (and still includes) the famed Cinerama Dome. We'll also include a "Coming Soon" and a "Starts Friday" on request!Condition grading acknowledges normal and natural imperfections for any handmade item.KEYWORD:Display+CaseWe can help you sell!
