Condition

This chromogenic print is in generally excellent condition. There is a very minor, barely discernible surface scratch in the right margin. Upon extremely close examination, a few tiny, faint grey spots are barely visible in the left margin. These are possibly the result of processing or mounting. The reverse of the mount is annotated "New York" in ink.
