Condition

This photograph is in generally excellent condition. When examined in raking light, faint silvering is visible in the darkest areas of the image. This photograph is trimmed to the image and there is some very minor wear and chipping to the lower and left edges. The reverse of the mount is lightly soiled. When examined under ultraviolet light, this print does not appear to fluoresce.
