This work is in very good condition overall. There is minor wear along the edges and corners. There is hairline pencil/pen mark along the top centre edge. Slight surface abrasions are evident on top edge (one nearby the aforementioned mark, and another on upper right quadrant), which fluoresce in light when examined under ultraviolet light. No evidence of restoration otherwise when examined under ultraviolet light.
