On both photographs, an overmat is affixed along the upper edge of the mount, which does not affect the image. Both photographs are annotated on the reverse of the mount in ink: 'Antelope Ruins, Canon de Muerto, Navejo Tribal Territory, Arizona.' The relevant orientation of each photograph for hanging is also written on the reverse of each mount.
On the reverse of each frame is a Sean Kelly, New York, label on the reverse.
