The image features an interior medium shot of Buddy (Buddy Ebsen) seated at a table in an Italian restaurant as he tells a story to an enthralled Pearl Elliott Holley (Barbara Stanwyck) and Mr. Slade (Victor Kilian). Printed for the film's 1943 U.S. theatrical re-release by 20th Century-Fox, it is unrestored in near-fine condition with corner creases; a set of staple holes or a pinhole in each corner; a few areas of light water staining in the top border and near the bottom of the right border; and one pinhole in the upper left corner of the background area with light signs of wear near it. The color tints are fresh and vibrant without any signs of fading.
