Condition Report:
Please note the colors and shades in the online catalogue illustration may vary depending on screen settings.

This early print, trimmed to the image on lightweight paper, is in generally excellent condition. Visible under raking light are occasional linear deposits of the photographer's original retouching. There are occasional soft creases and two pinpoint-sized impressions that do not appear to break the emulsion. The corners are very slightly worn.

On the reverse, 'T1307' is written in pencil in an unidentified hand.

When examined under ultraviolet light, this print does not appear to fluoresce.
