Condition Report*:
A lovely impression with primarily vibrant blue inks. Condition of the work is consistent with its age. Mild toning to the sheet appearing slightly heavier along verso extreme edges; some scattered accretions along edges (likely due to handling) contributing to darkening along verso and recto extreme edges. Mild, scattered foxing throughout sheet, primarily evident verso with a few evident spots in uninked areas recto. A few small pin prick holes throughout the sheet, upper left corner presents with a 1/2" diameter area of thinning with a small (1/16") central loss. A few negligible pencil inscriptions verso. Mild creasing to upper left corner. Vertical central fold, pressed flat; top of fold line presents with an extremely small tear, 1/8" at most in length. Vestiges of hinging and adhesive along extreme edges verso, do not appear to majorly impact recto image. Unframed.
