Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although there is much more contrast with the background tending more towards a true white in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals a few small, thin, short and unobtrusive scratches and very small rub marks and handling marks to some of the prints. There is evidence of light wear to the front and back cover with two small scratches to the front cover.
