Condition

This photograph is in overall excellent condition. There is a soft crescent-shaped handling crease in the upper right quadrant that is visible under raking light. The black margin edges are very slightly chipped. 'S-76' and 'LLP / 5-76.5.FLP' are written in an unidentified hand in pencil on the reverse. When examined under ultraviolet light, this print does not appear to fluoresce.
