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.

In addition to catalogue description:
- trimmed to or just outside the borderline.
- a tiny circular abraded area between the man and the column.
- some soft flattened folds at the lower right, the usual soft vertical drying crease.
- a few very short repaired tears at the lower left sheet edge.
- two short printer's creases at the lower sheet edge.
- a number 40 written in pale brown ink below, a few strays of red crayon on the background cityscape.
- some pale stains and pinpoint foxmarks in places, some discolouration at the left and right sheet edges, mostly noticeable verso.
- hinged at the upper sheet edge verso, with remains of old hinges.
Otherwise as described and in good condition.
