This print is in generally good condition. There are several sharp and soft handling creases in the image and in the margins, some of which appear to break the emulsion. The margin edges and corners are creased and bumped, with some lifting of the top paper ply at the corners.
On the reverse, '1AA 05' is written in an unidentified hand in ink on a white, round sticker.
