platinum-palladium print, flush-mounted to aluminum, signed, titled, dated, annotated, and editioned '2/25' in pencil and ink and with the Condé Nast copyright label on the reverse, framed, 1970, printed in 1971 (Worlds in a Small Room, p. 71)

Acquired from Stephen Wirtz Gallery, San Francisco

This early print is in generally excellent condition. There is light soiling on the reverse of the flush-mount, and, as is sometimes typical of the platinum-palladium prints mounted on aluminum, the margin edges are slightly abraded. There are tape remains on the exposed aluminum at the top edge, likely from a prior matting/framing. These do not affect the print itself in any way.
