-Sheet partially affixed to backing illustration board with tape mounts.

- Two tape mounts at bottom edge verso are cut so sheet can be lifted off illustration board at bottom, revealing signature and stamps verso.

-There are tape pieces still affixed to sheet verso on bottom edge where mount was cut.

-Uneven rippling of entire sheet, but not limited to parts of top edge of the sheet.

-At lower right corner there is a small area of damage with a break in the sheet and additional creasing of 7/16 of 1inch total, recto/verso. To naked eye, area has a crumpled appearance.

-At upper right, sheet is rippling, bulging outward, and not lying flat, with visible hard creases in sheet.

-At left and right, top, outer-edge sheet is curling under in places.

-Additional creasing is visible, largest area is approximately 2 1/2 inches, but not necessarily limited to an area at lower left and upper corner.

-Under light, we notice the appearance of very slight, thin, vertical lines of color that alternate subtly, we assume this is intentional or part of the printing process(i.e in whitish areas the appearance of very slight, alternating, grayish, vertical lines.)
