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.

The sheets are hinged at the upper corners with metal thumbtacks to the backing board, and the upper right corner has additional hinging to the backing board. A few pinpoint spots of paint loss and partial tears are to the areas surrounding the thumbtacks. The sheets undulate slightly and soft creasing is intermittently, in keeping with the artist's working method and choice of support. Under ultraviolet light, the upper right corner fluoresces from hinging. There is no apparent inpainting visible under ultraviolet light.
