Condition
This work is in excellent condition. There are minute losses to the black neon coating adjacent to the metal wires and most likely a result of prior installations, primarily on the first "A" adjacent, as well as a few scattered extremely minor instances on the "E" and the second "A." This sculpture is wired for US electrical current.
