Condition
This print is in overall good condition. There is a very thin, vertical strip of emulsion loss along the extreme upper left edge of the print. Scattered indentations, which do not appear to break the emulsion, are visible only under raking light. The mount is very faintly yellowed in a thin band around the print. There are two linen tape remnants at the upper left and upper right corners of the mount on the reverse.
