More Information

All four prints are framed under glass and have not been removed for inspection. All show some darkening and discolouration to the paper, including some staining to the text blocks. The Lord Raymond print shows a loss to the lower right corner. The frames appear to be original, and are structurally sound, however the backboards are not securely fitted and may not be original. The glass has been cleaned but remains somewhat dirty.
