Condition

The print is generally in good condition, the full sheet, with minor surface soiling, scuffs, and staining primarily at the sheet edges. The sheet edges have three repaired tears (the largest at center bottom measures 1 1/2 by 2 1/2 in., the two smaller are 1/4 in. each at upper left and top sheet edge right). A soft handling crease at upper right is breaking through the ink surface slightly.
