Condition
This photograph has not been examined out of its frame, but it appears to be in generally good to very good condition. The edges are worn. There are some small losses of emulsion along the periphery of the print, likely where some dried blood has fallen away, as well as 2 small losses near the lower edge of the image. Extending from the central portion of the upper print edge is a one-inch tear which does not affect the image. Upon close examination, a few handling creases are visible, primarily in the margins.
