2 chromogenic prints, comprising 'Warehouse Through Window with Parking Lot – View after Dark, Paramus, New Jersey' and 'Back-Yards, Bayonne, N. J.,' each mounted, signed, titled, and dated in pencil or ink on the mount or mat, framed, 1967 and 1978 (2)

'Warehouse Through Window with Parking Lot – View after Dark, Paramus, New Jersey.' This print is on paper with a glossy surface. Visible upon close examination in the sky area are some faint speckles of indeterminate nature. In high raking light a series of fine scratches are visible in the upper right quadrant. None of these issues is obtrusive, nor are they atypical for prints by Graham. This print is signed, titled, and dated in ink on the mat. 'Back-Yards, Bayonne, N. J.' This is print is on paper with a glossy surface. As is typical, and expected, with Graham's photographs, this print appears somewhat faded, with slightly less than fully-saturated colors. This print is in excellent condition. This print is signed, titled, and dated by the photographer in pencil on the mount.
