Condition
Overall in fairly good condition. The sheet has buckled, due to the nature of the vellum support. There are brown stains located at the four corners and there is a larger stain at the upper margin in the centre, this may be caused by the sheet being previously glued down, marks visible on the verso. The colours remain fresh.
