Condition

in generally good condition; scattered soft creases (sheet is thin paper); some soiling to surface: scattered stains, spots of foxing (one such spot at center left is actually a tiny hole--looks like a pinhole), smudges; sheet is slighlty faded (edges are slightly lighter); sheet is hinged to backing with pieces of brown paper tape along the upper edge; right edge is uneven and irregular (as though it had been torn-away from a book?? or a larger sheet???)
