Hartshorne inkstamp at the reverse of the lower left image (slightly showing through), a printing crease running the length of the sheet in the left and upper margin, a few short paper imperfections in the upper right margin, hinge remains along the reverse of the upper margin edge (slightly showing through), the drawing with minor surface soiling (particularly at the sheet edges), the R. Hartshorne inkstamp at the reverse of the lower right image (slightly showing through), otherwise both in good condition
