Condition

These prints are in generally excellent condition. One photograph has been inspected out of the frame (horizontal image with a utility pole at lower left and a large white cloud in the center). There is faint silvering at the perimeter of the image, which is not visible when viewing the print framed. The upper and lower edges are gently rippled. A few tiny deposits of original retouching are visible under close examination in raking light.

Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
