Condition
Laid down on card. Two faint vertical lines run along the left edge, inherent to the cardboard medium. The cardboard is slightly scuffed and scratched in places: notably in upper dark-grey horizontal band and in bottom band. The corners of the backing card are creased and there is a thin trace of glued paper near the bottom of the right edge. Otherwise this work is in good overall condition.
