This work is generally in good condition. There are minor creases along the left and right edges, and there are two lines of horizontal scratches which both measure approximately 15 cm near the lower left edge. There is another vertical scratch which measures approximately 20 cm around the lower right corner. Upon close examination, there appears to be pinpoint protrusions in the mid-lower edge.
