These 6 gelatin silver prints, mounted together to thin white board, are in generally excellent condition. Upon close examination under raking light, a few tiny raised areas are visible across some of the prints, possibly a result of the mounting process. There is a nearly-imperceptible band of discoloration on the mount at the periphery of the image where the window mat has covered the mount. Graphite registration marks are visible at the periphery of the overall image and at each corner. There is some inconsequential soiling on the reverse of the mount. Sold framed.
