signed, titled, dated 'September 7th 1973,' and annotated 'Box 603 Montauk' in ink on the image, framed, 1973, printed later

This photograph, on semi-glossy paper, has not been examined out of its frame. Faint, tiny, rust-colored and translucent matte deposits, likely foxing, are visible overall. Several unobtrusive creases are visible only in raking light. The print is trimmed to the image, and the edges are inked. The corners are creased or bumped, and there is a small loss along the lower edge.
