Condition

This print is in generally very good condition. Faint horizontal rippling is visible. When examined in raking light, the following are visible: 5 small, sharp handling creases that do not appear to break the emulsion, scattered throughout; tiny deposits of original retouching; and shiny, transparent small deposits along the lower margin edge.
