This gelatin silver print, trimmed to the image and mounted to card, is in generally very good condition. Only visible in raking light are the following: scattered hairline scuffs and scratches; linear and pinpoint-sized impressions, most notably a 1/2-inch cluster of linear impressions in the lower right quadrant. The mount is age-darkened and soiled, with scattered brown deposits of indeterminate origin most evident near the lower left edge. Upon close inspection, two 1/2-inch linear impressions are visible just beneath the signature. The reverse of the mount is faintly soiled and appropriately age-darkened near the edges. Sold framed.
