Condition
Both items are in generally good condition with no visible tears, creases, or losses. Neither show a sign of restoration under UV light. The item with a blue background has toning and undulation along the margins; there is light foxing throughout. Although it is not inspected out of frame, it seems possibly that is has acidic burn, given that the margins of the mat is browned. The item with a white background has toning, browning, and foxing throughout. There is possible skimming to the center of the upper margin. Both items are framed under plexiglass; not inspected out of frame. Very light wear to the frame.
