Condition
This photograph is in generally excellent condition. Upon close examination, a tiny crease is visible in the lower right corner of the image and appears to break the emulsion slightly. In raking light, the following are visible in the upper center portion of the print: a tiny pin-point indentation that does not break the emulsion, and 2 tiny dust particles that appear to have been trapped between the print and the mount during dry-mounting.
