Henny also said "That's no ladybug! That's my wife's slabbed lobby card!"

I would think that would enhance the value as you get both the card and the bug for one price.

Was there no mention of the CGC encapsulated bug on Jean Arthur's chin in the description?!!! On 30 Jul 2010, at 19:10, Reel Classics Posters wrote: So my MR. SMITH portrait card arrived, and upon closer inspection, it definitely had to come out of the CGC encapsulation because that black spot on Jean Arthur's chin that I thought was probably dirt or ink is actually a smashed bug! http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=7025&Lot_No=83797 I got out my box knife and carefully cut the plastic along one, then two, then three sides, but I can't get the card out of the plastic! It seems to be stuck on the end that was closest to the seal (the right side). There's no room to cut on that side without risking cutting through the plastic to the paper, and I'm afraid to pull on it too hard, since it already has a tear in the lower border. Is it possible that the edge of my card is sealed *to* the plastic instead of *in* it? Advice anyone? This has got me stressed and perturbed.
