This print is in generally excellent condition. There is a slight wave in the paper that is not visible at a normal viewing distance. The number stamp, 'No. 00245,' is in black at the lower right edge on the reverse. Also on the reverse, '42862' is written in an unidentified hand in pencil. There is an area of light rust-colored speckling, possibly a result of processing, at the upper left edge, on the reverse.
