Condition

This photograph is in generally very good to excellent condition. When examined in raking light, the following are visible: several soft handling creases; fingerprints in the right margin; a small, faint scratch in the lower left quadrant that appears to break the emulsion; and a light scuff and very small indentation in the upper right quadrant that are visible only under the closest scrutiny.
