This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged along the top and at the bottom corners to the backing board. The sheet is slightly discolored due to time-staining. The sheet is rippling slightly. There are a few minor knicks at the top and bottom of the sheet and a minor fold along the bottom. The tie element is lifting slightly and the gold element of the collage has a minor crease at the bottom left corner. Framed under Plexiglas.
