This slightly warm-toned print, on double-weight paper with a slight surface sheen, is in generally very good to excellent condition. The print has been trimmed to the image. The corners are lightly bumped. In raking light, a small (about 1/4-inch) sharp crease and a faint one-inch vertical scratch that does not break the emulsion, are visible at the right edge. The reverse of the print is lightly soiled. There are several numerical notations in various unidentified hands in pencil on the reverse: '34' and also '30' and '710' within the Robert Frank Archive stamp.
