Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although there are fewer magenta undertones in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the rich texture of the Roll-a-Tex visible in the original. Condition: This work is in good condition. There are handling marks and surface dirt throughout. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
