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 sheet is hinged to the backing board at the corner-tips and periodically along the edges and undulates very slightly. The edges of the sheet are deckled. Artist's pinholes are to the corner-tips. Faint creasing is to the lower right corner-tip and along the lower edge. Visible under close inspection, a faint linear scuff is to the upper left quadrant and another is just above center. Tiny losses, some slightly lifting and some with associated cracks, are occasional, most notably near the margins and in the areas of thicker application of white pastel. A few tiny accretions are infrequent. There is no apparent inpainting visible under ultraviolet light.
