a diptych of unique Polaroid SX-70 prints, each annotated and dated in ink on the reverse, matted together, 1977 (2)

Condition
These Polaroid SX-70 prints are in very good condition. The color remains rich and saturated, with no apparent fading. Scuffs and surface scratches are visible overall on both prints. In the upper left quadrant of the right print, there is a small starburst shape visible beneath the clear surface layer.
Linen hinge remnants partially obscure the following notations on the reverse of the prints: 'WJA hand,' 'N. Y. C.,' 'SUN. Oct 30 1977,' '1:55 PM' and '2:12 PM.'
