Condition
This photograph, on double-weight paper with a semi-glossy surface, is in generally excellent condition. There are two diagonal creases in the lower right corner that appear to break the emulsion and the top paper-ply is there bent back slightly. There is a tiny deposit of retouching in the area of the jacket lapel. Faint, superficial scratches overall are only visible under close inspection in raking light.
There is a 'Gallery Naruyama Administration Office Collection Toyko' red ink stamp on the reverse and 'HN026' is written in an unidentified hand in pencil.
