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.

Overall excellent condition with signs commensurate with age, noting minor indentations in the recto and signs of silvering at the top of the image, the bottom right and the bottom left. There is a stain on the right margin and the top margin, although the latter appears to be a printing defect. Neither of which would be seen if framed without the margins. The verso has one small red stain on the left and the caption is very faded, making it illegible in places although the date and the NASA image ID are still visible.
