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.

Neutral toned gelatin silver print on double weight semi-gloss paper with elaborately-decorated recto and margins, partially affixed on board. Minor handling crimps (left center edge and top right corner), and a mild crease (bottom right and top left quadrants), all typical of Beard's work, none affecting image significantly, visible in raking light and or under close inspection only. Some minor wear on the bottom left and right sheet corners, not affecting image. A stunning print, in very good condition.

This work is sold and shipped framed.
