Condition
This print is in generally excellent condition. The corners are lightly bumped, and there is a tiny area of warm discoloration at the upper left margin edge. This does not affect the print. What appears to be a thin vertical scratch in the central portion is actually in the negative.
These annotations and numbers are in unidentified hands in pencil on the reverse: '200-56-III,' 'London 13.42A,' '27,' and 'p6.'
There is a Pace/MacGill, New York, gallery label on the reverse of the frame.
