Condition

This photograph is on double-weight paper with a faintly glossy surface. The photograph is essentially in excellent condition. When examined very closely, a very tiny chip can be seen in the top edge. This is not obtrusive. There is age-appropriate silvering in the dark areas. The secondary thin tan board mount is somewhat worn at the edges.
