Condition

This photograph, trimmed to the image and on glossy double-weight paper, is in generally very good condition. Upon close examination, a few tiny deposits of original retouching are visible overall. In high raking light, the following are visible: surface scuffs; small soft handling creases; and 2 soft horizontal creases in the upper-central portion of the image, most of which do not appear to break the emulsion. The upper right corner is creased, which breaks the emulsion, and the tips of the lower corners are bumped.
