The sheets are hinged along the upper corners to the backing boards and undulate slightly. Bumping and creasing is occasionally to the corner-tips and extreme edges of the first and third elements. Stray media, faint handling marks and surface scuffs are intermittently. Upon close inspection, a small spot accretion is to the upper center quadrant of the second element and the upper left quadrant of the fourth element. There is no apparent inpainting visible under ultraviolet light.
