Condition
This print, on double-weight paper with a semi-matte surface, is in generally very good condition. There are several scattered imperfections in the image, which appear to be unretouched features of the negative. There is some wear to the margin edges and corners.
There is some faint soiling on the reverse. 'EB 026' is written in an unidentified hand pencil.
When examined under ultraviolet light, this print appears to fluoresce faintly.
