The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

This ink on paper is in stable condition overall. The paper does not present tears. Exposure to humidity over time has caused mild planar distortions throughout. Poor handling has contributed to multiple creases: 2" crease to the bottom-right corner as well as some smaller ones around the bottom left edge and particularly at the top left edge. There is one paper loss at the extreme top right corner filled with mulberry tissue. There is one surface abrasion 7" in from the left edge near the top edge-1/2" x 3/4" in size. One matching paper insert has been installed at the upper right corner, 1/2" x 2", a vertical repaired tear 6" from the left edge and 2" long. Visually, the paper is mildly oxidized from contact with acidic material and a natural process of aging due to light exposure. Otherwise, the ink media appears to be undisturbed.
