Overall very good condition of the recto with signs in keeping with the age of the print, noting slight indentations, small scratches seen in raking light and silvering to the print. The bottom two corners have been previously folded and there are fingerprints on the image although only visible in raking light. The verso is also in very good condition with slight orange spotting on the lower left corner although this does not affect the recto.
