Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the stickers are much brighter and more vibrant and the paper tone tends more towards cream in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the collaged texture and metallic shine of the stickers apparent in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached to a backing board at intervals on the reverse. Upon close inspection, there is extremely minor wear to all four extreme corner tip, original to the artist's working method.
