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 the catalogue description:
- the full sheet.
- the artist’s signature partially obstructed by paper tape verso.
- some light cockling across the sheet as is usual with this edition.
- a crease in the subject’s hair above his left ear and an elliptical crease in his left cheek.
- a few unobtrusive, fine scratches near the subject’s mouth.
- some light rubbing underneath the subject’s chin (mainly visible in a raking light).
- hinged with paper tape along the sheet edges verso at various places, the reverse therefore only partially examined.
- two small areas of light-staining verso, over the artist’s signature and numbering.
Otherwise as described and the printed surface in very good condition.
Framed (with glass).
