- Polaroid print
unique large-format Polaroid Polapan print, signed and dated in ink in the margin, framed, 1987
Condition
Although this oversized Polaroid Polapan print has not been examined out of its frame, it appears to be in generally excellent condition. In high raking light, the following are visible: a few small handling creases in the lower portion of the image that do not appear to break the emulsion; and to the right of the sitter's ear, a 3/4-inch piece of hair, which likely adhered to the surface of the print during coating.
