These small Polaroids are in generally excellent condition except where noted. As is common with these Polaroid prints, the surface exhibits a slight unevenness as a result of coating during processing. Rock and Stump - Visible upon close examination in the central rock is a small light-yellow area of discoloration. Fingerprints are visible along the margin edges. On the reverse of the print is the photographer's studio stamp and the number '2' in an unidentified hand in pencil. Toilet and broken window pane - There is light graphite-colored soiling in the lower print margin. Gushing water - The lower right corner of the image is missing, which likely occurred as a result of improper coating during processing. Industrial scene - Visible in high raking light in the lower left quadrant of the image are 2 small soft handling creases that do not break the emulsion.
