Condition
This photograph, on a light cream-colored slick mount, is in generally excellent condition. Upon very close examination in high raking light, the following are visible: occasional pin-point-sized impressions overall that do not appear to break the emulsion; and two tiny scratches in the lower left and upper right quadrants, both of which may disturb the emulsion slightly.
The corners of the mount are slightly creased and bumped. There are a few small rust-colored areas along the right edge of the mount.
