Condition
The sheet has been lightly attached to the backing card using two tabs on the top edge. The sheet undulates slightly. There is fairly heavy discolouration to the sheet which has pushed the white bodycolour to the surface, however the coloured pigments do appear intact. There is a pinhole in the upper-left corner. To the centre of the sky there is a small spot of foxing.
