Executed on grey laid paper, not laid down and t-hinged to the mount at the upper two corners. The upper and right edges are unevenly cut and the sheet is slightly undulating. There is a spot of foxing to the left of the right most figure. Some light time-staining. Otherwise this work is very good original condition.
