Pencil and estompe on laid paper. Hinged to the mount at the reverse upper sheet corners. A soft horizontal crease through the upper third of the sheet, and a diagonal crease at the lower-right corner. Further handling creases elsewhere. The lower sheet edge with a few tiny nicks. Some light- and mount-staining. Some pinpoint foxmarks and tiny spots of discolouration. A spot of thinning towards the centre-left edge. Subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that this work appears to be in generally good condition.
