Condition

Unused vintage archive sheet, offered unframed. Please examine the original photographs for paper tone, edges, markings and condition. The artist signature, where reproduced, is printed rather than personally hand-signed. Irregular paper loss affects the lower-left outer paper margin and corner; the largest affected area remains approximately 1.5 inches clear of the image. Individual copies vary. The photographs show the actual original lithograph. Faithful photographic cropping, orientation and conservative luminance correction have been applied to separate listing copies; original borders, inscriptions, paper tone and condition are retained. No artwork has been generated or reconstructed. A reflection that obscures original detail cannot be recovered faithfully.

One original vintage lithograph sheet per quantity ordered. Printed signatures are reproduced within the artwork rather than individually hand-signed. No frame is included.
