Condition

This print, on double-weight paper semi-glossy paper, is in generally excellent condition. Frank's robust signature extends into the image somewhat. A faint waviness is visible in raking light, and the upper margin edge is rippled. There are small clamp impressions from processing in the margin corners. There is an abrasion at the upper tip of the left margin corner. There is some minor soiling on the reverse.
