Condition
This photograph is in generally excellent condition. Visible in raking light and upon very close examination are 2 small surface scratches (each measuring no larger than ½-inch) that do not break the emulsion in the upper sky area, and a minute loss of emulsion along the lower right corner of the print. Also visible in raking light is very light silvering at the print's periphery. The print is on a smooth white mount that is trimmed.
The collection stamp on the reverse of the mount reads 'Dr. and Mrs. Michael Adams.'
