Condition

All four edges of the sheet are slightly uneven and ragged. There are a few dents and bumps along the edges, likely from handling, and it appears that the upper left corner was at one point bent, but has been flattened. The picture surface is in generally good condition, aside from some very minor toning and a stain along the upper right edge. This sheet is framed under Plexiglas and has not been examined out of the frame.
