The paperboard is laid down on another board, which is affixed to the mat support with tape along the reverse edges. The rightmost section of the paperboard, which is solely the margin and a separate piece of board, is no longer affixed to the supporting board and retains remnants of adhesive on the reverse. The margins also retain spots of adhesive and pinholes, and there is a hairline cut in the surface of the board in the margins of the lower right corner. There is a very minor crease in the top layer of the paperboard along the extreme left upper edge. The paperboard appears slightly toned and possibly slightly dirty.
