Given by the artist to J.Y.M. over a thirty year period and thence by descent to the present owner

Each work is on a white envelope. Obviously each envelope has been torn along the edge to be opened by JYM but the lines of tearing are clean and neat. 'Eiffel Tower from the Seine' and 'London Bus' each have a very tiny extra tear along the torn edge. There are some marks of surface dirt but each of the envelopes is in good overall condition. Please telephone the department on 020 7293 5381 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
