Condition

This photograph, on double-weight paper with a slight surface sheen, is in generally excellent condition. On the reverse, there is light soiling along the left edge of the print. When examined under ultraviolet light, this photograph does not appear to fluoresce. Because of this photograph's date of acquisition by the present owner, it is known that that this print could not have been made later than 1978.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report.
