Condition

With wide margins slightly shaved at top and lower left, in good condition apart from minor imperfections in the margins comprising pale light- and uneven mat stain, two small areas of surface soiling, and a few handling creases at the lower sheet edge. The ink is printed unevenly at the lower left and bottom center of the block, but this is inherent to production and not a condition imperfection.
